I'm excited to be Guest Designer this week for the Merry Monday challenge #61. It can be found at Always Playing With Paper and is a Christmas challenge. Here is the sketch for this week:
It was an unexpected sketch and I had to do a bit of thinking to decide what I would create.
I used a set from Rubber Stamp Tapestry to make my partial swag or it could be considered a part of a wreath. It was made with two of the three peg stamps in the set and I stamped and stamped off the holly.
Hope you'll play along this week and get some of those Christmas cards made early. You can be sure Lesley the Design Team have some really creative and beautiful cards made.
Recipe:
Stamps-Rubber Stamp Tapestry/Ornamental Holly, Hot off the Press/Christmas Words (sentiment)
Paper-PTI white cardstock, Stampin'Up! Cherry Cobbler
Ink-Memento/Bahama Blue and Bamboo Leaves, Stampin'Up! Cherry Cobbler

Great card Benzi. You did a fabulous job creating the wreath and we are so happy to have you as our Guest Designer over at Merry Monday this week.
All your thinking really paid off. I love how you did this. Great take on this sketch. Hopefully I can play along this week.
Gorgeous card, Brenda! Very creative take on the sketch! Congrats on your GD spot! CKC was a big disappointment. Had to go out in pouring rain to get there and there were only 17 vendors. Hope the weather will get better during the week!
Well if this isn't the most gorgeous stamping! Wow...you rocked the sketch to pieces! Awesome approach and I am loving every bit of it!
Way to work the sketch, Benzi!! Love your take on it :)

When I went to put my card on the blog, I thought, Oh Boy, Benzi and I are on the same wave length! Great minds think alike, right? Love this wreath. Aren't peg stamps great. I really should use mine more. I'm so glad you won last week. Your card was awesome, as is this one!
