Designer's Choice Challenge - Christmas in July

Today is Wednesday, so it's time for a new challenge from Repeat Impressions!  This week it's the Designer's Choice Challenge and Maki is challenging us (and YOU!) to create a Christmas card in July.  One random winner for the month will win a full sheet of unmounted rubber - very cool!  (If you use Repeat Impressions stamps, you will earn two entries with your submission.)  Create your card, upload to your blog or on-line gallery, and link to the blog post.  Please check out all the details on the Repeat Impressions blog, The House That Stamps Built.  There you will also find the other Rock Stars' creations, or you can follow these links:

For my card, I used 2007-I Christmas Teddy, found on this page.  I paper-pieced him using four different papers and colored his paws and nose.  The patterned papers I used are from a Die Cuts With a View Winter Matstack.  The sentiment is from Repeat Impressions.  We'd love to have you join us!

Also, you still have nearly a week to participate in our WHAT IF? Wednesday sketch challenge for a chance to win a $25 gift certificate.  You can find the details of that challenge here.


Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!
