Merry Monday #212 {Welcome Back!!}

Welcome back everyone!! We hope your summer holidays were amazing and you've had time to refresh and relax! We are back in full swing and ready to bring you some wonderful inspiration for your Christmas card stash this year...

Before we get started, we have some announcements to make. First of all, we are sad to announce that Kristie Goulet has stepped down from our team! This is her final challenge with us. We will miss you so much, Kristie!

WE would also like to welcome Marcia Hill to our Design Team lineup! Marcia is a faithful Merry Monday player and we are so thrilled to have her with us! Welcome, Marcia!



Hi everyone.  My name is Marcia Hill, and my husband and I live in a small suburb of Grand Rapids, Michigan.  We have 3 daughters, 2 son in laws, 1 granddaughter, and 2 dogs.  I am basically retired and spend most of my time stamping, reading, knitting, and of course spending time with our granddaughter, who is just an absolute delight!  (she's almost 2)  I have been hooked on stamping since I first attended a SU! party back in 1999, and making Christmas cards is one of my favorite things to do!  Being a part of Merry Mondays is a dream come true for me and I am SO excited to be a part of this fabulous group!!    


Also, we have decided to not have weekly Guest Designers this year! Instead, we will be inviting Guests to join us for one month increments at a time starting in October...it is a nicer way to get to know someone! 

And now onto this week's challenge...

Hi all!  Happy September to you all!  This week I (Deanne) challenge you to use gold, white and black only - rather nontraditional, but should make for some stunning cards!



1. Each week there will be a brand new challenge posted on Monday at 5am (PST).

2. The challenge will be either a theme, an inspiration photo, a sketch or a colour combo.

3. Each participant is encouraged to comment on 3 cards in the Gallery. (Who doesn't love comments!)

4. Have fun!

5. Follow the weekly challenge closely.
