Dottie's World Challenge - Christmas.



Today over on Dottie's World it's time for another challenge. This week it is Karen's turn and here's what she has to say!
"CHRISTMAS! Yes really! The weather is getting warmer but lets not forget that cosy feeling we only get at Christmas. It's never too early to start preparing for the big day so this time I want to see a Christmas project, what you do is up to you as long as you include a Charmed download.
Anyway, I love Christmas so any excuse says I. But awkward I may be but I am sure you also know how I love to give you something, and I am giving a prize to one lucky winner......"
Now I love making Christmas card when there is no mad rush and each year I try to be organised and fail miserably. So this challenge was great and got me really inspired to set myself a few Christmas cards to make every month throughout the year. So I rumaged through my papers to see what struck me and found some lovely K&Co Peppermint Twist paper that I HAD to use. I found it so refreshing to work with and was a nice mixture for making Christmas cards in April as the colours were so non-traditional and spring-like.
Here's what I ended up with.
I used Madison in the Mountain's from the Holly & Madison World Tour Collection.
Make sure to visit Dottie's World to see the reast of the Design Team's creations and join in to be in with a chance of the candy.
