Merry Monday Evergreen

It's time for Merry Monday again.  Can you believe how fast Christmas is approaching?


I just realized that I forgot a piece from this sketch.  Oops.


The rest of the Design Team is right on target.  Take a look.




I hope you'll join us at Merry Monday this week.  Besides getting a jump on your Christmas cards, you have a chance at being a Guest Designer.

I'm also taking this over to Shopping Our Stash Weekly Challenge.  This week's challenge is 3-2-1.  These counting challenges always make me hyperventilate!  But when I take a deep breath, I can see the count in a card. I have 3 colors of cardstock, 2 stamps and 1 ribbon.  The ribbon by the way is the last piece of paper ribbon left over from my angel making days.  That was so long ago!

All supplies are Stampin' Up!  unless otherwise noted

Card Recipe
Stamps:  Evergreen
Ink:  River Rock, Early Espresso
Paper:  River Rock, Early Espresso, Whisper White
Other:  Labels Collection Framelits, Square Lattice EF, Paper Ribbon (non SU)

Glad you could stop by.  Let me know so I'll know it's OK to return the visit.

Enjoy!

it's beautiful, Bonnie. I love the Silent Night Evergreen. Now, I'm singing. LOL

You sure won't have to worry as Christmas approaches. You've been so smart to get all these cards made this year.

Hi Bonnie. I love the Silent Night verse set over the tree. Very chic with the framelit frame too. I must get organised and join in and start making some more xmas cards. x

I DO remember live operators! We had the regional center in our tiny town with TWO operators in a building smaller than my Playhouse. My foster mother's aunt was one of the operators who worked there. OMG, what a treat one time to be allowed to touch the board!! Thanks for that memory. Since I may forget to do it, feel free to pick up where my post left off ... like playing "telephone!" Fun!

P.S. (Sorry, I thought I was here yesterday and left a comment!)

I love your card and it's lovely gold tree matching the background. It looks very rich!

I've never seen this tree stamp before with the coordinating text, but it sure is stunning! Your card is just gorgeous!
