Deck the Halls - Merry Monday


Hey there!  I'm back again this week as a Featured Designer at Merry Monday!  
I must admit that being able to show my Christmas themed stamps, dies and papers a little off-season love has been quite fun!

Here's the beautiful Merry Monday #99 challenge!


I was inspired by the new sketch at My Favorite Things, MFTWSC166, and The Card Concept 5 is a close fit for the color scheme.


Love how the touch of gold really makes this card POP!  Gold glitter paper, oh how I love thee!


Thanks so much for stopping by the stage!
