So, what's the theme for this week? Well, how about Christmas in July! My family (Rosemary here) started a weird little tradition of celebrating Christmas in July. Cheap and/or funny gifts were exchanged and we ate things like barbecue and corn on the cob off the Christmas china and iced tea in the fancy glasses. It was fun and we enjoyed the silliness!
We're many months now until the holidays and yet my usual wish list is the same - I want so much to be organized for Christmas so that I can savor the season rather than feel like I'm trying to outrun a freight train (or a sleigh pulled by reindeer).
So, I am trying and have set a goal to make my own cards as much as possible and get an early start on them. I have other projects for Christmas as well, but this seemed a good start.
I am taking the Mojo Monday challenges and trying to make a Christmas-themed card for each one. Weird isn't it? But that fits me!
So, here is my first attempt, it is using the sketch from Week 81 and I know that subsequent ones can only get better.
Loved hearing that you enjoy our challenges and can't wait to see what you create this week. Just link to your submittal in the comments. Also, because we need to catch up on other submittals for previous challenges, please check back again and again this week and we'll highlight all that you've been linking in with.
So, let your imagination go wild and let's see what you're working on - are you making a particular Christmas gift, scrapbooking last holiday's photos, making your own cards, or what?
Thanks to each of you for making this unique challenge blog a lot of fun and a success!

Hey thanks for making me a winner, this will be my very first "blog prize" :)
nice card, love the paper. I just posted for the 3 Clovers Thursday Challenge, it was Christmas in July too -- I will come up with a new one for your challenge.
These Christmas challenges might be the answer to getting my cards made on time this year.. o' who am I kidding, I will get a few made early and then about Dec 20th I will be in a mad rush to get the rest done.
YAY! I needed a warm cozy, what a way to get one, with a prize. I a so glad I came out of my funk long enough to type you a message.
GREAT!!!
Here is my contribution :)
