Have a Holly Jolly Christmas!


Hi everyone!

This week at the Christmas Card Challenge its:


Anything goes...one of my favorite, and I know a popular one to enter, so I hope we get lots of cards in the gallery this week!

Coloring books are also becoming so popular lately that I thought I would buy one and see what it was all about. So I went to the local craft store to get one. I was AMAZED at how many there were to choose from!
 It was overwhelming.... until I found just ONE page you could buy to color, cut, and make into cards. PERFECT for me to try it out! They are from Adorn it, called," Art Play Printable." I bought one designed for Christmas and another with flowers. 

Here is what they look like:


SO fun! 
I colored mine with Copics and decided to make a Christmas card with one to share today for the challenge. I also added some Stickles for a bit of sparkle. I backed it on real red, black and brushed gold.

    I've received a few of those coloring books as gifts and think they're great. I love your card Laurie - the gold border is the perfect finishing touch.
