Happy 'Merry' Monday!

Well, hello friends! Happy Monday! For me it's a good Monday and I'll even say, a good month because......remember when I said I had some news to share?!...Well, today I'm sharing! ;) I'm Guest Designing at Merry Monday, for the month of July!!! Yaaay! I'm so excited and honored that Lesley asked me! Thank you so much, Lesley! :)


So, here's my card!


At first, I said 'oh boy, what did I get myself into?!?' lol I really have to admit, no matter how many Christmas cards I make, I always seem to struggle coming up with something! I'm not sure what it is?...Though, it is somewhat the same when I try and make masculine cards. Tough. ;) Anyhow, I did manage and I hope you all enjoy it?!!...

If you haven't checked out the challenge at Merry Monday, you really should! ;) It's never too early to make a Christmas card, right?!!...After all, what's the saying 'Christmas in July'!?! lol ;) Thanks sooo much for stopping by and be sure to swing on over to Merry Monday and see all the DT creations!!! 

Enjoy your day!

    Gorgeous card! Love that it is clean and simple (and one-layer to boot). Beautiful inking for depth. I would love to know what stamp set you used for the mistletoe - thanks!
