Merry Monday Challenge Week #100

Hello & Happy Monday!

Hope everyone had a great weekend!
 I went in on Friday and had my Epidural Steroid Injection for my back issues. I'm about 85-90% pain free! Did some light cleaning around the house on Sunday & did laundry and was not bothered with my back at all!! I'm amazed! I'm still putting ice packs on my back a few times a day but all in all, i'm thrilled!

Well, since it's Monday, that means it's time for another challenge from over at Merry Monday!
This week is a special week because it's our 100th challenge but also because we took in a new Merry Maker! Stop on over to the blog and welcome our new "maker" and check out all the lovely creations the ladies whipped up!

So, let's get started....






I used a new to me stamp from Memory Box that I purchased last year. Not sure of the name but I decided to embossed my snowy trees onto Regal Rose cardstock with Winter White Embossing Powder, My patterned paper is from Kaisercraft and the sentiment is from Papertreyink. The sentiment on the inside of the card is from Stampin Up!.


Merry Monday Week #100 Card:

Stamps: Snowy Evergreens from Memory Box, Papertreyink, Stampin Up!
Ink: Regal Rose, Versamark, Winter White EP
Cardstock: Neenah White, Regal Rose, Green Galore, Kaisercraft DSP
Accessories: Snow Burst EF, Regal Rose 1/8 Taffeta, Liquid Mono Adhesive

This card came together pretty quickly for me. I stumbled a bit on getting the flags just right but I do like the finished product! Hope you do too!

Well, that's all for me today!
Thanks so much for stopping by & have a wonderful day!
~Wendy
