Well, I side-swiped my card for today's Free for All challenge, to give some special attention or treatment along an entire side. I used a scallop edge border punch along the bottom and then dolled it up with lots of buttons!!
This is also for the Color Throwdown #103 challenge, to use certainly celery, riding hood red, and river rock. These colors screamed Christmas to me, so I was thrilled to SNEAK PEEK this adorable kitty image from the Tweet Blessings set being released by Mark's Finest Papers in August. This set is not truly a holiday set, but the little flower elements reminded me of poinsettias. I'm thrilled to get another Christmas card crossed off my list for December!!
Paper: SU certainly celery CS, SU whisper white CS, various Paper Company CS, DCWV Christmas Mat Stack
Ink: Palette moulin rouge, SU certainly celery
Accessories: CM 1.25" square punch, SU curly label punch, SU scallop border punch, sewing machine, dimensionals, chipboard alphas from the Target Dollar Spot, assorted buttons from my stash

Buttonz, buttonz, who'z got the buttonz! I'd say Emzi does!! What a fun way to "side-swipe" your card Emily. And get a head-start on Christmas at the same time. Great job on the challenges! Love how you can combne a whole whack of challenges into one card. That takes focus! What a fun card - happy to see you are still "exercising with your punchez" and keeping them from getting dusty! Hope you're enjoying your summer...
