Merry Monday #287

Hello friends.  Colleen is hosting this week's Merry Monday challenge and she has a fabulous inspiration photo to inspire us this week!


I just loved the colors from this photo and the sweet home-y feeling it brings, so that was my starting point for my card this week!

I loved the pinks, reds, and greens in the inspiration photo, and used Catherine Poolers dies from the Winterhaven set to cut out my houses, church, and trees, and also the snowy slopes.  My background was blended using Salty Ocean, Faded Jeans, and Stormy Sky Distress Inks and then I splattered some water to add the look of snow falling.  My sentiment is from PTI's Think Big Favorites: #20.


What will YOU find to inspire you from this weeks inspiration photo??  Let us help you get a head start on those Christmas cards...just head on over to the Merry Monday blog and check out all the fabulous inspiration from the DT and then play along with us!  You can find all the info you need right HERE.

Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!
