A three-fer today! For Sabrina's WT, a gatefold card. I chose the double gate fold; Wednesday's WCW, an abstract forest (thanks, Brenda, nice video!); and Holly's VSN, timeless stripes. One side of the paper is snowflakes, the other stripes. The doo dad on the front is a short cut for me; when I worked at Target, I would pick up little things at the $1 section (now the 3 or 5 $ section) and I need to use them.
I really liked the wcw video; I think I might keep doing these during the year and have enough for Christmas next year. I might even improve in year's time. Couldn't decide on any sentiment or embellishment...that will keep until later. I am now eating a Bahlsen Family spiced German gingerbread cookie with chocolate on the bottom, purchased at Aldi. Interesting flavors, I like it!

Beautiful painting....looks great inside your gate fold. I love the Target $1 find...I've found some neat things there. Your cookie sounds yummy ...those Germans do like their gingerbread (Lebkuchen)

Great painting. That looks like very textured watercolour paper you are using. . And lovely paper. I find it hard to find double-sided, and I like it when the coordinating is done for me.

Your scene makes a lovely Christmas card and makes me want to go check out the video. (I've been super busy and haven't been able to do the WCW challenges for ages.)

I love that you did this as a gatefold card. Great job with the scene and those wonderful trees. I like that the snow looks as if some of it is melting and running down the mountain. I am making some of these for next Christmas, also. That cookie sounds good.
Merry Christmas.

Absolutely amazing painting on those trees. I am in awe of your painting. Someday when I have time I hope to play in the WCW challenges. I just am so impressed with all the cards I see from those challenges.
