happy holidays…

Hee hee, it is so funny to say Happy Holidays in August!  Both Caardvarks‘ and Our Creative Corner have a challenge for holiday themed cards.  I just love practicing my holiday cards this early… gets me thinking and I’m already feeling more prepared this year.  I used the color challenge (turquoise, brown and a neutral) from The Pink Elephant Challenge because this is one of my most favorite color combos!!!!

I think I may have changed my mind and this might be my holiday card this year!  Or maybe I’ll do a combo of both.  Brown and turquoise are one of my favorite color combos and I just love how this worked for a holiday card.  I brought out my new EK Success ornament punch again and just adore this ornament.

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look.
