The silhouette store has some really amazing silhouette images. This one with the deer is one of my favorites. City Crafter has a snowy image as their photo inspiration this week. Fan-Tastic Tuesday has a Winter scene challenge.

Shopping
I won this sweet image a few weeks ago and left it on my desk so I would use it. I saw the challenge at Tuesday Throwdown and immediately knew it had found its place for today. I used the sketch from Sketch Saturday. Penny's Paper Craft has a Use something from your stash challenge. This image has been sitting here for a few weeks waiting for me to get to it. There are a couple anything goes challenges also. Simon Says Wednesday, Inspiration Destination, Word Art Wednesday
Light Bulbs
This card is a little different than what I usually think of at Christmas. Black is not a color that even crosses my mind at Christmas but these Light Bulbs really pop out against the dark background. Papertake Weekly has a Take Your Pick challenge. I chose to use the color Challenge and the glitter it up technique. Its hard to see but the green bulbs are glittered and the red one are of foil. Crafty Sentiments has a Christmas Decoration Challenge. Through the Craft Room Door has an Anything Goes Challenge ending real soon.

Kate
My friend, Kate has a birthday in a few days. Also next month she will graduate from Ga Southern with a degree in music. Congratulations Kate! So I thought this simple trio card would be perfect for her. I wasn't sure about the colors but Kate is a very Girlie girl so I knew it needed to be pink. Then a saw the color challenge at Cupcake Inspirations and knew that would work. The butter soft glittery paper doesn't shine as much in this picture as I had hoped but it really does give this card a classy look. Glitter n' Sparkle has a Die cut or punch Challenge. Pile it on has a Any Holiday or Celebration Challenge. Since I am celebrating Kate's Birthday and her graduation I think this should fit right in. There are several Anything goes Challenges this will fit into also. Crafty Gals has a Use Scraps Challenge. I always love it when I can use several pieces of my scrap collection.

Noel
I'm up against the clock once again trying to get this posted in time for the Simon Says Monday Challenge. I saw this card in the Silhouette store last year but never got around to cutting it. This year I was determined to get it done. One thing off my ever growing list of things to do. Cute Card Thursday has a Birds/Animals Challenge. ABC Christmas Challenges has A Wild Things Challenge.

Silver Snowflake
I've used this snowflake a couple times already this year. It cut so well on my silhouette and I just like how elegant it looks. This sketch came from Jo's Scrap Shack. It isn't exactly her sketch but its close enough to get the idea. I stamped my sentiment on the angle but I used a baby blue pad and its kind of hard to see. Fab and Funky has a CAS challenge. Inspiration Destination and Word Art Wednesday both have their usual Anything Goes Challenges.

Give Thanks
This little guy is from KadoodleBug Designs. It is always a challenge for me to put these together. By the time I 'm done I have glue everywhere. I still think my eyes need s some work but he looks pretty cute anyway. KadoodleBug Designs has an Turkey/Thanksgiving Challenge. I turned this into a card instead of putting him on a card. Wags N Whiskers has a No Squares Challenge. Marker Pop also has a no Square Challenge. Since I cut the small pieces of this in white and used my markers to color them I cant see why this wouldn't work there too. Crafty Girls has a Thankful challenge.

This sketch came from Sketch Saturday. I used a Catch The Bug image for the Cute Card Thursday Food and Drink Challenge. Through the Craft Room Door has an Anything Goes Challenge.

Snowflake
I fell in love with this delicate snowflake when I saw it. My sister cut it first and it was just so pretty I had to use it. My card is very similar to hers but I used different colors and added a few silver gems. I love the contrast between the sparkly blue paper and the plaid. Suzy Bee's Bloomin Challenges has a Blue and White Theme. Craftin Desert Divas has a Make it Sparkle Challenge. Crafting By Design has an Anything Goes Challenge.
Fairy Garden
I needed a tag for a friend's birthday. The theme for her party is fairies so I decided this tag would be perfect.

Crafting When We Can has a Pink and Lime Challenge. 3 Girl Jam has an Anything Goes/with Ribbon. Artistic Inspiration has a Feminine Challenge.

Filagree Pumpkins
I was afraid these pumpkins might not cut since they were so delicate but much to my delight they cut perfectly. I want to use them in the Cards TV Pumpkin Challenge. I enjoy doing their challenges but often forget them. Crafty Gals has an Autumn Challenge. Wags N' Whiskers has a No Squares challenge. 613 Avenue Create, Craft Your Passion and Crafting From the Heart all have Anything goes Challenges.
Red Candle Jar
I took a little different direction with some challenges this time. I used my silhouette and cut this pattern to fit this jar then used etching crème to put the design on the jar. I love how it turned out. so Even though it is not a card I hope to use it in several challenges. City Crafter has a Christmas Challenge closing very soon. Wednesday's Inspiration has a Sparkle Challenge. This scene is very sparkly on the red background. Glitter N' Sparkle has a use some red Challenge. This is definitely red.
Turkey pull tab

I made this set of turkey cards. the first one was all wrong and I had to start over but I finally saw what the problem was.
