Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge #225 - Candy Canes

 Is it really December?!  Christmas will be here in just a few more weeks so there's never been a better time for a brand new Merry Monday Christmas Card challenge!!  Linda has a sweet challenge for us this week:  Create a Christmas card with candy canes!

 
  I made some of my own background (and wrapping) paper using these adorable images from Paper Sweeties Jingle All The Way set.  The frame is from Paper Smooches and sentiment from STAMPlorations.

     You're going to love the wonderful projects created by the Design Team this week -- be sure to stop by...
 

Thanks to these challenges for letting me share in their fun:
