"The little shabby box card contest"

I've entered The Shabby Box Card contest. We were given 2 sketches to create cards with. I used the Dec. Scrapmuse kit to make both cards.
Here are my entries.

December Contest: Color Combo with a Twist!

Chiqui has posted the December contest for ScrapMuse. Here are her details:
December is here and everyone’s busy as ever! The holiday season is in full swing. Christmas decorations are up and we see red and green everywhere. I hope you have some free time to scrap and my challenge for you this month is to use red & green as inspiration in creating a layout. You can use a little of other colors but the layout should be predominantly red & green. Another thing I want to see is glitter and at least 3 patterned papers! Your layout can be Christmas related or not, its really up to you!

Oh, and just a few reminders, layouts must be new and posted in the ScrapMuse Gallery under “December 2009 Contest”. Please also link them to the challenge thread so we can all admire them too. You will not only be playing for prize pack from the store valued at $25.00, but your winning layout will also be featured on our blog and website as the “layout of the month”. The design team will select the winning layout by voting for their favorite layout based on the layout itself and by following the challenge as described. The deadline for this contest is December 31 at midnight, EST time.
See her example right here:


I hope you get a chance to play along!

Twisted Sketches

Twisted Sketch #25 is up today and it was my week to play along. The "twist" this week was to have a "ruffle" on your page. Please check out the sketch right here and the rest of the DT's projects.
Here is my take.

One More

From the kit that just keeps giving here is one more card. I think that it is my favourite of the bunch. I had so much fun using the Smooch that was in the kit.

Even more Festive Harvest

Here are a few cards using the ScrapMuse November kit.
