Default September 2018 Christmas Card Challenge

Here is the thread for the Christmas Card Challenge for September 2018!



September's challenges:

First a color challenge by Janine aka Jay Bee!! Use a combination of black or dark blue with silver or gold!!

Second challenge by Susan aka susanbri! To use any type of bird on our cards!! Be it cardinals, robins, bluejays, etc!!

Please leave us a link to your card and make sure to use CCC18SEP in the title and in the Keywords!

Reminder, this is just a suggestion to help get you motivated and start on your 2018 Christmas Cards!

There is no 'deadline' to completing your Christmas cards for September, post anytime!

It's never too late to join....

You can join anytime during the year. If you need to skip a month or two, that is perfectly fine.

I have a small stack of these Asparagus prints on the table ( because, this was the best thing I tried a while back) and I have been hoping to wiggle them into Christmas cards, so here is another one. ( #8 for this month from me)

Well, I have 18 Christmas cards done, with sentiments in them and envelopes stamped. I need over twice that! So far behind! But I was surprised I had that many done!

I haven't finished my August quota yet, but just made this card for the new Inspiration Challenge and since it has birds on it and since I proposed birds as a theme for September, I thought I'd link it here. It will be number 1 of 10 for September (if I ever get caught up!).

Here's another one with a bird. It's sentiment is "A Little Note" because it's going to a friend who recently suffered a bereavement, and though I want to send her a card at Christmas, it doesn't seem appropriate to say "Merry Christmas" or "Happy Christmas" as it's going to be a sad time for her.
