December Monthly Challenge: Joyful Creations

It’s a wonderful time of year…truly a magical time full of family traditions, magical surprises, and gorgeous decorations.  For this Month’s Challenge we want you to share your Joyful Creations…make something that includes the word J.O.Y.

We dedicate this challenge to our amazing General Manager: JOY!!! For extra ‘brownie points’ include her favorite color in your project: Broken China Distress Ink!!!

As usual, our designers are playing along…here is some cool inspiration to jump start your imagination.

Richele Christensen created this A.D.O.R.A.B.L.E. lil snowman card…he’s stinkin’ cute, isn’t he???

Pam Hooten stamped her JOY into the handle of the spoon on this gorgeous ornament. That Snowflake Rosette is just perfect on her project!

Linda Cain shares this amazing project…in her words: “Well it doesn’t SAY Joy, but it is Joyous.” And, we totally agree!!  We love Linda’s use of Ice Stickles and the gorgeous Graphic 45 Nutcracker Suite Paper.
