Happy Tuesday everyone...Gosh!!! I have been missing in action!!! I had a terrible flu last week for 3 days and then when I finally felt better on Friday we had a wee snow storm which dumped more than a foot of that beautiful
This card is my DT Sample Card for Friday Sketchers using the wonderful sketch by the very talented Aud of Norway who is hosting this week. The prize this week is being offered by Inktegrity so I hope you will come right over and join with us this week!
For my card I used those lovely Magnolia papers and Unwrapped Tilda from the latest collection, all from Magnolia-licious. I promise to give more information in my next posting.
This card is my DT card for Just Magnolia using the marvelous sketch by the infinitely talented Mina. This challenge will run until Thursday, January 7 and the prize is any C.C. Designs stamp set of your choice from All The Scraps. So come on over and show us your interpretation of the sketch using one of your cute Maggies!!
I used Webster Pages DP and the darling Tilda as Christmas Angel from Magnolia-licious.
I hope you all are prepared for the happiest of seasons and have done so without the hurry and stress. Here is a pic looking from my back porch up to the garage in the back yard. AND this was taken before the snow got deep!!! For all of you who would love to have a white Christmas, I wish I could send this white stuff to each of you...lol
Thank you so much for dropping by to check on me and thanks for all of the emails expressing your concerns about my absence. I would love to know what you think about my Maggies. Until we meet again, be safe and big hugs for you!!

Jacque, even under a snow storm, you come up with fabulous ideas and I just love these two cards! The color of the bows on your second card is gorgeous! Nice deep shade of burgundy!

Gorgeous cards!! I wish you a Merry Christmas with not to much of snow, enough is enough, LOL! Hugs Nilla on holiday in freezing Sweden! (Hopefully I can still go to Magnolia factory, if not to much snow!!)
Oh Jacque, these cards are BEAUTIFUL... and you know what? Even the snow is beautiful... it's NOT beautiful once the plows start touching it, and then sand and salt is all over it... I'm so glad you have your power back... I'll take your snow for you, I'm used to it in NY. LOL

These are both FANTABULOUS!!! Love the bows!
Glad that you are 1) feeling better, 2) "electrified, 3) and dug out! Merry Christmas!!
Sweet cards, Jacque! Both are works of art, but my favorite is the first because I have a special place in my heart for anything with red gingham. Wonderful use of the DPs and the pointsettia flowers are gorgeous! And that charm is perfect, of course!!
I can't believe you received more snow that we've seen all season! Glad to hear you are shoveled out!!
Beautiful creations. thanks for showing us a picture of a snowy Christmas!
Great card Jacque! Love the elegant bows on the side and great colouring!
