Itâs my pleasure to host the Inspiration Challenge (IC835) this week & weâre visiting Touch of Class & their Pinterest Board. THIS is the picture that inspired my card.
My southwest Christmas card is pretty easy to make. I die cut the sun out of pale yellow, the sandy hills out of tan, the mountains out of brown & the cactus out of a couple of shades of green. I sponged the edges to give them some depth then added the tiny Christmas lights to a couple of the cactus & used a gold gel pen to connect them. All of the scenery is attached to a pale grey bg.
Thanks so much for looking. It's on my blog w/ more pics & links: The Write Stuff

A gorgeous card made with your die cuts and I love the Christmas lights you added. Perfect sentiment.
