Hello there...we celebrated Marcel's birthday this morning with his friends and cousins...and after we got home, I had lots of time in the craft room. Pat is studying for his real estate appraisal license and the boys were all playing. Perfect for me. So I decided to play along with two different challenges. First up is the Verve World Card Making Sketch Challenge. I don't normally make cards with all neutral colors, but I love the way this turned out. What do you think?
And...then I went a completely different style (more my typically style you'll see here..) and played along with the PaperSmooches WCMD and Operation Write Home Challenge. Kim gave us an option for the challenge and I decided to go with a one layer card. Which one do you like best?
I hope you are having a fabulous World Card Making Day!

Gorgeous cards!
don't make me choose! I love elegant and classy AND super fun! How did you make those snowflakes? They seem to have a bit of sparkle :) Happy WCMD!!
I can't choose either. I love the classy, neutral combo in your first card. The second is fun and crisp. Two winners in my book!
Oooh, loving the neutral pallet on the Verve card. Great use of the sketch and a lovely card! The bright snowflakes on the second card are adorable! Well done on both :)
Saw the thumbnail of this card on the Verve blog and had to take a closer look. It is gorgeous. Hope you enjoy your weekend!
LOVE 'em both, girl, especially the vintage, shabbiness of the first! That bit of glitter is just perfect, and the bright colors, of the second, are uber fun!
Gorgeous card, Lynn! Love the hemp bow under the flower on the first card and gorgeous bright colours of snow flakes with bling on the second card Happy WCMD!
Oh, Lynn, both cards are lovely, but that first neutral one has my heart jumping for joy! It's stunning!
Lynn, I love them both, but wow! You really should create more elegant cards like that first one - it is just stunning! I love it, and may need to CASE it someday soon - just gorgeous! :)
gorgeous cards. love the shabby chic side of you too!
These absolutely amazing cards show your range as one talented card maker. I love the shabby nature of the first and the bright, bold graphic style of the second. No favorite here, I love them both!
I like both cards. The neutral one is my favorite. It's amazing to make a card for Christmas that doesn't even have red & it's perfect!
Both cards are great, but that first one is a stunner! Love it!
Great take on the Verve sketch, love those blooms.
This is jaw-droppingly gorgeous, Lynn! It's perfect in EVERY way!
Love the funky card, too! Neutral or bold, you do great work!
one is simply shabby and the other simply bold and CAS... love them both!

Way to rock the WCMD challenge, Lynn! Both are gorgeous in their own ways! Love them both!
Oh my word, these are fabulous. I love that funky washi tape one, but gasped a little when I saw the neutral one. Those glittery snowflakes totally stole my heart. Absolutely gorgeous!
How pretty would winter be if we had snowflakes like the ones on your card?
Lovin the twine treatment on the first card too - great take on the sketch!
Hugs!

They're both fabulous!!! Love the neutrals in the Verve card and excellent use of the sketch!
That Verve sketch card is AMAZING! i love the neutral colors! And the 2nd is CAS and just adorable!
Ohhh...I love them both!!!!!! Your first one is absolutely gorgeous and the 2nd one is fabulously fun!
Okay, I love them both! Its too hard to decide because they are both so different. I love the over-the-top look of the first, with the glitter...it is just beautiful. But the second, I just love how fun it is! And those colors really pop!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE your Merry and Bright card. Oh my goodness, it's fabulous! I also really like the Peace on Earth one....so pretty....but I'd have to say the first one has my "favorite" vote. Happy Belated Birthday to Marcel!! What a great age 7 is!
Can't choose a favourite -they're both fabulous! I love the soft colours of the first and all it's gorgeous layers. The second is sleek and graphic and I love the colours!
Both are such great cards Lynn. Your Merry & Bright card is fabulous!
Oh my goodness! I love your neutral card. It is so very pretty. ann
I gasped when I saw your first card, but I love them both, Lynn! You're getting me in the Christmas spirit!
