Wow, it's November already! Another month and we'll be having to send those Christmas cards out! Thanks to Lesley and her Merry Monday Challenge, I have plenty on hand.
Here's this week's challenge....
The circles were the biggest challenge for me. But I have circles in my ornament, rhinestones, rows of dots in the sentiment and even some of the letters.
I hope you'll join in this challenge and link back to Merry Monday! We love to see your Christmas creations! While you're there, be sure to check out the rest of the DT samples! Oh, my, what inspiration!

Pixie's Snippet Playground is always looking for cards using snippets so I'm skipping over there to see what shenanigans are going on.
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge is Anything Goes. A very popular challenge, I must say!
All supplies are Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted
Card Recipe
Stamps: Ornament Keepsakes, Magical Season (Holiday Single)
Ink: VersaMark, SU Markers (Pool Party, Real Red)
Paper: Whisper White, Winter Frost Paper Stack, Pool Party Coredinations, Real Red
Other: White EP, Basic Rhinestones, Corner Rounder Punch (Fiskars), Bow (Memory Box)
I stamped the smallest round ornament with VersaMark ink on a Real Red strip, added white embossing powder and heat set. I chose to fussy cut it as I didn't want so much of a red outline. The sentiment was inked with markers, huffed and stamped directly on the main panel. (With breath held, I might add!) I inked the last line of scrip and stamped again on a teeny, tiny scrap of white so I could pop it up.
I'm so glad you could stop by.
Enjoy!

So, so gorgeous, Bonnie! LOVE the layers! And red & aqua...sigh.
Very pretty card, Bonnie! Loving the paper and your embossed ornament with the pretty diecut bow! The sentiment fits nicely! :)
Such a pretty card filled with fabulous details! Love the red ornament bow and the one rounded corner is sweet!
I saw your lovely card on Pixie's snippets and Nonni's blog - you could also enter this into my CHNC challenge extra for November - I'd love to see it there too. x
Such fun retro colours for this wonderful Christmas card! Love the pop up of part of the sentiment! Great idea! TYFS and joining in all the fun at Christmas Card Challenges #49. :)

This is a nifty Challenge I'm seeing you & Loll entering. Loving these colors, and you've interpreted this challenge is such a beautiful card. The blue is so pretty and the red bow tie just pops off the card, as did the sparkling crystal 'circles'. Way to go! TFS & Hugs
This is absolutely divine Bonnie! I LOVE the colour combo and the design is beautiful. I've been using the MB bow die today to dangle a star on a card :)
Hugs, Di xx
Beautiful card Bonnie. Love these colors together. Your ornament just pops and I like the way you've added different colors to your sentiment along with the dimension of popping up the one line on a banner - ingenious! Thanks for the reminder about all those fabulous challenges out there ... I keep forgetting to add them into my DT cards! Loll xx
Beautiful card, Bonnie! Love your ornament and stamped sentiment! Really like the narrow layer of Pool Party too between your white layer and patterned paper!
Hi Bonnie, thanks for sharing the CAS card, big fan! I particularly love the stamp and colour you use, which is not the traditional red-and-green but it's better. And thanks for the challenge list too - I've never been in any challenge and this will be a start for me. X Kimberly from Singapore
Love what you did with the challenge - especially the two-coloured sentiment!
This card just jumps off the page--so beautiful, Bonnie!
Fabulous card, Bonnie! You stamped that sentiment perfectly - you must live on the edge LOL. Love that cute little bow die and your rounded corners.
AMAZING!! Love this so much, Bonnie. Your card is superb!
Bonnie your card is so fresh and clean. Your ornament is gorgeous and I love the wee red bow. The popped up detail on the sentiment and the rhinestones finish it beautifully.
Hi bonnie oh wow this is just do pretty! You done a great job with the circles too! Beautiful :)

Hi Bonnie, it's fabulous how you've used the colours. I love how the red ornament really pops on the white and how you stamped the sentiment, just lovely. xx
