Merry Monday #20

(Woo Hoo all the hard work to create this card paid off as it was chosen the winner At Merry Monday)

Good Grief do you ever have one of those days that everything you do just takes you forever because it's one interruption after the other and then.....THE POWER GOES OUT! R E A L L Y ???  NOW??? We are having yucky weather, but not thunderstorms, so I have no idea what is up with the power outage. Just glad to have modern electricity again!!!

I love Lesley's sketches because they are simple, but my goodness this card has taken forever and a day to complete. Most people would have been like - it's a sign give up, but I am always determined to finish what I start! I just never knew something so simple could be so complicated! ha! 

So here is the simple complicated card! :-) So forgive the brevity of the post as I want to get this up.

Obviously, I am not happy with the photograph as the weather is crummy, but the Aqua bling on the gingham whimsical tree is so cute! I love Aqua and red together and that is how we roll at Christmas around this house. The papers are from Martha Stewart. 

The sentiment is from Wilson Designs Snowy Wishes. 

As stated in my earlier babbling I was inspired by Lesley's Merry Monday's Christmas Sketch. 

I am also joining in the Moxie Fab Gingham Challenge: Who doesn't have a Whimsical Gingham Christmas Tree with aqua bling and a silver tinsel star??? :-))))

Oh and some exciting news...this card made Papercrafts Star Runner Up! Yay! Thank you so much to those who made it possible! I am thrilled and honored!

Runner-Up - Our Quasar Award!

Hope you are having a Terrific Tuesday!
