NOV10VSNA ~ FRI. NOV 12 ~ 6 PM EST ~ Happy Christmas
Title: Happy Christmas
Hostess: Carole (FibreJunky)
Keyword: NOV10VSNA
Day/Date: Friday, November 12
Time: 6:00 PM EST
In thinking about what puts me on cloud 9, I got to thinking about one of my favorite times of the year. And what makes me happiest? Well, Christmas, of course! I love the decorations, the music, the joy. People are nicer to each other. The looks on little children's faces warm my heart. And of course, we can't forget all of the wonderful food!
My challenge for you is to make a Christmas card, but I don't want any traditional Christmas colors. No sirree Bob! No green and no red .
Let's see what beauty we can create without 'em.
VIEW THE GALLERY FOR THIS CHALLENGE
HERE
UPLOADING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. ALL VSN CREATIONS MUST BE UPLOADED BY 10:00 PM EST ON MONDAY, NOVEMBER 15th
2. You have 45 minutes to complete the challenge.
3. Please remember to put in the correct keyword, NOV10VSNA, when uploading your image. Copying and pasting the challenge keyword is recommended to avoid typos.
It is also highly recommended that you post a link to your creation in this chat thread to be sure your project is seen.

Oooo, a glass of wine sounds good. But...then I don't stamp so straight! I had better wait a little while for the wine

I can attest to using it in lieu of water when watercoloring--confusing glasses, you know. Colored wine is still good.

Alright, Carole! You got us started with a good challenge. I needed to make my November card for the CCC10 challenge. This will be it - once I make 7 more like it.

I asked. It didn't work. He has a tummy ache. I'm going to have to go myself after my challenge.
