Welcome Christmas Crafters! It is the first of the month and time for our new challenge! I hope that you and your families are happy and well!

While Christmas may still be quite a few months away, it is never too early to get started on all the Christmas and other December Holiday cards you are going to need when December finally rolls around!Whether you are just embarking on getting a start to your stash or you already have a few cards completed, we'd love to have you join us and add your cards to our Link Up for a chance to win some goodies! 

 

If you are new to this unique challenge, you can find out the impetus behind why I created it under the Introductions tab and all the details you need to know in order to participate, by checking out the Challenge Details tab (both tabs located at the top of the blog). For your convenience, a summary of the most important rules can be found in the right sidebar under the heading Basic Rules Summary.

Right now, it is time to get down to the business of our latest challenge. Here is what you need to know...

 

Challenge #99

  ANYTHING GOES with the 

Optional Twist: 

Favourite COLOUR COMBO

Our theme, as always, is Anything Goes Christmas (or in celebration of other December holidays). Are you a red and white kinda person or do you lean more towards gold and silver? Do your cards often feature blues or more traditional greens? Regardless of what your colour choices may be, if you want to challenge yourself this month, you can always follow our optional twist of choosing to use your Favourite COLOUR COMBO.

Keep in mind though, you don't need to follow the twist to link up your cards and earn a free paper each month or for a chance to win your choice of TWO Christmas or Winter themed mini kits of digital papers from Décosse's Dynamite Doodles. Following the twist is simply for fun.
  
Here is a preview of April's paper for those adding two cards to this month's link up:  

 

Now check out what the Sleigh Belles came up with to inspire you. Clicking on the DT names will take you to the individual blogs where you can check out the specific details for these wonderful cards.

 

 

 

 

 

So what are you waiting for? It is time to link up your Christmas and other holiday cards for April! 

 

Please remember that this is a CARDS ONLY link up. While we've had some lovely tag entries, ornaments and other creative projects in the past, we've sadly had to disqualify them.

Please join us again on April 15th, for our midway post when the Merry Maidens will be here to share their awesome cards. I will do my very best to get one of the outstanding winner announcements published before the midway. Other special posts may be published throughout the month. Be sure to follow us through Bloglovin' so you don't miss a thing!

We look forward to seeing you participate!
