Merry Monday Challenge Week 13

Hello & Happy Monday!

It's time for another challenge from Lesley over at Always Playing With Paper! I've come to really love this one for the simple fact that I am getting ahead of the game with my Christmas cards for my own use as well as the craft show I do in Nov/Dec. One thing is for sure, come November I won't be rushing around to create a bunch of cards and that takes alot of stress off of me. I've been working hard on Christmas stuff this year since we've gotten settled in our new home. I love Christmas! <3

Below is Lesley's sketch & my samples.
I'm lovin this one!

Another cardinal card I love. This is so not British and so seems strange to me but they are lovely. We have the rob as our Christmas bird so it's strange to see a different bird at Christmas!
Beautifully put together card.
