Christmas Cards... already!?!?

I found a new challenge site today: http://www.papertakeweekly.blogspot.com/. Their challenge this week (you have a choice of two themes) is ... no stamping! Yay! I can do that!! So my first card below is for that challenge. The letters are rub-ons and there is not a stamped image in sight. :o)

-also-
On my last post I told you about a new blog called "Christmas Cards All Year 'Round". They are having a challenge for October to create 5 different Christmas cards to help get a jump on the holiday season. here are mine:

What Christmas means to me: nothing says Holiday fun like good 'ol green/red with Christmas trees!!

The next one is the same theme: it represents Christmas Carols (to me, at least!). Here it is:

The next is "untraditional Christmas colors": Hot Pink and Lime Green!

The next is from a sketch (check out their site to see the sketch!):

And the last one I already showed you but I am going to post it again bc it is part of the "challenge set":

That's it for now! This was fun!!!
