Today’s card is simple yet striking. I CASEd this great design from Sarah Berry with some minor alterations. I love the little bit of plaid peeking through underneath.

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a with the theme of Winter Wonderland. I stumbled upon this card from Sandra Korten and I just had to CASE it. She uses a great combination of colors and elements to create a very fun winter card. I kept most of her elements while subbing out the colored paper and twine.

A recap of last month’s goals:
Schedule Christmas card classes and a crop — Success!
Catch up on MP pages — Sorta success. I need to print the next batch, but I got a few weeks finished.
Get back into Project Life — Success! I completed about 8 weeks with another 8 weeks to go or so to get caught up.
Plan out December Daily ideas — Success!
Pull out and organize Christmas supplies — Success!
December Goals:
Finish and Send Christmas Cards — Obviously…
Send December Birthday Cards — Fell off the wagon a bit during our move.
Make Holiday Albums (and calendars) — I make these every year. I can play around with the timing and supplies this year due to changing travel plans.
Start December Daily album — I’ve got my base kit. Now to plan it out a bit more and record something daily.
Finish out Family Project Life album — I really want to push and get this one done before January 1st. (I’ll still be behind on the kids’s albums, but I can work from the family one)
November Memory Planner — I like to stay on top of this one.
30 Days of Lists in my MP — Instead of creating a separate album, I’m going to use the December pages in Memory Planner to record these lists.
