Well, I can't say I'm really thrilled with the response I've had with my 2012 Christmas Card Challenge. I've taken part in these in the past, and had a blast.... so I thought it would be a GREAT idea to do one myself. I planned out the themes for each month, and put together prizes for each month so when people participated, they would have 6 more cards ready for this coming Christmas, AND some nice things to add to their scrap stash. BUT with the exception of January, no one has participated!
With all that said, (just had to vent)... I am NOT stopping this right as it's beginning. SO.... here goes.
The theme for April is: GREEN!
Since Spring is here so early, and I love the Spring so much since everything is blooming and starting over for another year of growing, our theme this month is Green! OK, so an all green card will be boring, so you can use white, and one other (SMALL) accent color. :)

Get your cards made, and entered into the Linky below by the 20th!!! Can't wait to see what you've made! Put mine to shame, I'm sure!
Here are my cards for this month.

Looking forward to the next challenge. It really is a good idea to gradually put the Christmas card stash together. I know last year I wished I had made more.
I was going to play this month, got a new spellbinders die and everything, but it won't cut correctly. I was bummed.
Julie, I hope you join in!!! Even May isn't too late to start. :) See how many you'll need, and adjust your monthly amount accordingly, OR go back to the beginning and make them all! :)
Lynn,
Are you using a Cuttlebug or Bigshot? I hope you find some help online to get your die to cut correctly!
YouTube is a GREAT place to start if you need a little help.
Check my tutorials section for helpers... you might find some help there.
I really wanted to play but I got totally distracted with home and taxes. I'm adding you to my calendar so I remember to play.
JPScraps,
I know how distractions work!!!!
I hope you'll join us for May. :)
I've got those samples already in the works (in my head). :)
