Our new Merry Monday challenge this week is very apt, given how the weather has been here in Helsinki recently. Nina is asking for snow on our Christmas cards. I decided to try out a technique I’ve not used before to create the background for my little snowy area. It was fun to do something … More Snow Cling – MM 274
Happy Monday, everyone! It’s time for another Merry Monday challenge and this week we have a colour challenge for you. Marcia is hosting, and she is looking for Christmas cards featuring red and turquoise. I made a clean and simple scene card for my project.

Happy New Year! Are you ready to think about Christmas? It’s less than a year away! Okay but seriously, at Merry Monday we like to get an early start on Christmas projects so that it’s not such a rush when December comes (at least that’s the theory!)
With Christmas only a week away it’s time for the last Merry Monday challenge of the year. This time it’s a tic-tac-toe challenge – pick a line, and make a card based on those. I went with the top line, and used stamping, patterned paper and embossing on my card.

This week at Merry Monday Colleen has a fun challenge for us, inspired by a pretty inspiration image. She’s asking us to use green and blue on our products, along with white, silver or vellum. I took inspiration from the baubles in the image to create this card.
This week at Merry Monday Sue is challenging us to include a Santa on our cards. (Or Father Christmas, as I would call him!)
