I have never done an MMSC challenge before. And I'm not sure I know what I am doing. But here's my card. I am in the process of designing my 2010 Christmas cards and decided to use this sketch for one of them. I used an image from Luna Art, SU CS, and My Mind's Eye Holiday Glitter Book DP.

Well just look who's here! Oh how exciting to see you join in the MMSC! I am not too close to thinking about Christmas, but I have to set that aside and tell you your card is just fabulous. You really made this sketch work for you with those papers and image. Girl, this is a brilliant, really brilliant interpretation of Priscilla's sketch. Now that you've jumped in, I so hope you become addicted and will be back week after week. BTW, you will need to upload this to Priscilla's blog. If you havent done this or dont quite know how that all works, just let me know. I'll help you figure it out; Phyllis had to spend I dont know how much time trying to explain this to me, so I know it's not always easy.

Lorie, a big whopping WELCOME to The Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge. So very glad you decided to give it a go!! I'm happy to see you figured out how to upload to the Midnight Madness link!! I hope you didn't get the direction from Anne Ryan or who knows where it would end up!! Just funnin'. Anne is a sweetheart and always willing to lend a helping hand to everyone but me!! Oooh, I just can't stop myself. Enough about AR and myself!! You did a most INCREDIBLE job on your Christmas card. I love every detail about it. Your b/g dp, the image, your holly leaves and ribbon. I love how you used the side panel of the image for your sentiment!! Woo Hoo, you accomplished 2 things with 1 card, your 1st MM card and another Christmas card off the list!! TSMFS!!
I truly hope you can come join us again next week Lorie and we all appreciate you sharing your talent with us.
Hugs
