It's Saturday and time for the Create with Connie and Mary Holiday Edition Saturday Challenge. Our subscribers can enter their design and have the chance to win prizes! It's not too late to join…we will be starting our last week, but you can see all the fabulous projects we've done so far, and our site stays up a year after we are done for you to refer back to it 24/7!

Again with the diagonals (thanks, Mary!)…lol! Here is my card using this sketch.

My card has a very clean and simple design to it this week. I started with a base of Bashful Blue cardstock. I stamped on the right side of the Whisper White layer with the snowflake design from Bright Hopes randomly in Bashful Blue ink. This is one of the sets we've been featuring this week on Create with Connie and Mary Holiday Edition! Then I ran the Whisper White thru the Big Shot with the Perfect Polka Dots Impressions Folder. On top, I used a piece of the plaid Letters to Santa Designer Paper and layered it on Early Espresso. Then I stamped Merry Christmas from Petite Pairs in Early Espresso on Bashful Blue and the snowflake again in Bashful Blue, then placed a Rhinestone jewel in the center. It is layered on Early Espresso, too. Those were placed on the front of the Whisper White, and I did a double bow of Early Espresso Quilted Ribbon to go across the front.

Make sure to check out what the rest of the Design Team has done this week over on Create with Connie and Mary! There are some fabulous ideas using this sketch!
