It's getting close to time to put up that Christmas tree and decorate it so pretty. Maybe you've already put it up. I haven't, but I decorated this little Christmas tree for Merry Monday.
Here's Lesley's fun challenge for this week.
Got the tree. Got the bling.
And singing O' Christmas Tree.
Addicted to Stamps and More has an Anything Goes challenge this week. Wow, what a lot of beautiful cards in that gallery.
CAS-ual Fridays and Curtain Call are pairing up this week for their challenges. Take a look at their inspiration photo. I hope it's OK that I have red balls on my tree. I do love the red ornaments.
Holly Jolly Christmas challenge is singing the same song so I think I'll go join in the chorus!
Jingle Belles is asking for a card showing our favorite holiday tradition. As long as I can remember the Christmas tree going up was the start of the magic. My brother and I knew it wouldn't be long until Christmas and we'd be so excited from then on! When our girls were growing up decorating the tree was a very special time and they would get so excited! Me too!
All supplies are Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted

Such a pretty Christmas tree with those red ornaments, Bonnie. Such a wonderful embossed bg, too.
Putting up the tree is such an exciting time for a family, that's for sure. Gorgeous card, as usual.
Sweet card Bonnie. Love the tree with the bling and the embossed background.
Great shading around your tree Bonnie! Love the red ornaments too!
Way to go on all the challenges...I missed them all! LOL! Love your pretty card as always, Bonnie.
Love your blinged up tree and the EF ins the BG is wonderful.
I love this tree with the red bling! Festive for the holidays!
I like your tree. It has an abstract look about it and just the right amount of bling. Deperately trying to catch up on commenting after my massive Christmas sewing commissions.

So pretty Bonnie. I do love that tree stamp ... and you've stepped it up a notch by adding the bling-y ornaments. I always forget about my top note die ... have had it for ages and am embarrassed to say have only used it once. Love how you've used just part of it and placed it at the edge of your card - fabulous design. Loll xx
Such a pretty tree, Bonnie! Love all the sparkly red rhinestones! You used beautiful colors for this and I love your layout! I don't have my tree up yet either. Normally I would but this year I feel the need to wait till the day after Thanksgiving! Have a wonderful week! :)
Such a lovely card

Wonderful card Bonnie, I love all the red ornaments on your cute little tree.

Love that background ... it reminds me of a cozy winter sweater ... such a lovely holiday card ... so glad you shared your holiday tradition with us at jingle belles.
Fantastic card, Bonnie! I especially like how you've colored around your tree in blue - it really makes it pop. So clever!
I love that tree. It almost looks 3 dimensional. And the bling is perfect.
Hi Bonnie, what a lovely card! Beautiful red bling. Also a fan of that bg folder you used.
I love your stylish tree with the red balls, Bonnie! And I see another cool EF being used, too!! Hugs, Darnell
So, so beautiful Bonnie. Love your blinged up tree :o) Thanks for joining us this week at ATS&M.
Bonnie, you make the most cheerful cards!! The blingy tree is fabulous and beautifully coloured. The embossing just finishes it nicely.
Your card design is really neat, Bonnie--wonderful way to use that tree! I'm going to keep track of the time & get my entry in this week!
A great card Bonnie and a fabulous layout too.
Love your tree!!
Have a great day.
Love Jules xx
Love what you did with your tree. I have the same set, so I may just give this challenge a try! Thanks for the inspiration...
Beautiful design and tree Bonnie. Just enough bling I have one similar to it for another post.
Santa always brought our tree when I was little and he brought it when our kids lived at home. They wake up and it's all decorated.
Bonnie what a lovely card. Love that embossing folder too. Glad you haven't put your tree up yet - there are folks near my home who have - far too early! And that comes from someone who loves Christmas!
Hugs
