Here's the ultimate in recycling... I think this little bell came on a box of chocolates we received over the holidays, and I really liked the little crinkly ribbon that it came on, so it's been sitting on my craft desk, waiting for a home:

Color Throwdown Challenge #175 & Merry Monday Challenge #3
I've never been one to make my Christmas cards very far ahead... but the idea of being more organized at that time of year REALLY appeals to me! So when I discovered the Merry Monday challenge on Lesley's blog, I thought I would try to play along whenever I can. I liked this week's sketch, and the colours from the Color Throwdown were screaming Christmas at me, so here's what I came up with:
Patterned papers are Season's Greetings, Echo Park; Kraft & Cranberry Cardstock is CTMH.
