What's Black and White and Red All Over?

Why, the newspaper, of course!!

Or, in my case, today, a Black and White

Non-traditional Christmas Card!

Today starts the newest bi-weekly challenge at

The Stamping Boutique Challenge Blog

The challenge this week is to make a

Non-Traditional Christmas Card

Do you know how hard it is to make a Christmas card

with NO red and NO green?

I sure do hope you'll join us this week, 

because it truly is a CHALLENGING challenge! (-:

For my card, I used "Snowman Sign" from The Stamping Boutique

and a Poinsettia from Birds Cards that I cut with my Cricut.

The embossing folder is "Frosty" (I think??) from Sizzix.

While I'm almost finished with my Christmas cards for the season,

I'm getting really excited about the 

Open House at The Crafter's Cafe!

You can't even begin to imagine how many 

games and events we are planning for

  the week between Christmas and New Years...

and the prizes.... 

WOW!!!

Our Design Team and our Sponsors have gone above and beyond

anything I could have ever expected and it is going to be one for the record books!

We just know that during Christmas break, you're going to NEED to get away

from all the Holiday chaos and I'm telling ya', this Open House

is going to be THE PLACE to be...
