ONE CARD....a hop and two challenges!!!

As a member of the blog challenge team for Mark's Finest Papers, I do not participate with the DT in the hop, but I do want to head you that way just in case you were unaware it is going on for the next few days.  Each day they will be hopping and showing you their creations with all the newly released sets.  Go to the MFP Blog for details and start hopping away........

This card was also made for my TWO Thursday Challenge Teams.....it was a busy week, so a combo card was the best for me this week.

Charlene is our December hostess for the CCEE Challenge.  She wanted us to be inspired by the song, 'Do you hear what I hear...."  Well, a STAR is a main element in that song.....and the sun is a star.....and thus this card.  Now please be sure to visit the CCEE Stampers Blog to see the fab creations of the rest of the team and how YOU can play along with us.

Nancyruth was our hostess this week of the Stampin B's and she challenged us to make a card with a star.  Well.....with the 'stars' in alignment with the blog hop and both challenges, this card also fit the bill for that challenge.  Now be sure to visit the Stampin B's Blog to marvel at some more stellar creations.

The above card was made using the MFP set called Hello Sunshine.  It has a few sun/moon images and several fine sentiments.  So.....be sure to go hopping with the DT AND visit the team blogs.

Look at you go, you li'l challenge queen, you! I don't believe I would've thought about the sun as a star, but clever you did! That is such a cool Nestie shape, too. This card just has "star quality" written all over it, my friend!

Awesome card! Love the contrast between the red and yellow background with the different textures.

Gorgeous, love the colors and the nestie. Would never have thought to use the sun as a star, great idea.

You packed a lot into this one card for challenges etc. Nice colors, very cool panel shape too, I guess I need to check out the new toys on the market.
