And this month, we are joined by the amazingly talented Elena Roussakis from her blog, Just ME.
I drink lots of coffee. Lots. I’ve been happily married for nine years. I’m a 30-something mom of three kids under the age of seven. When I’m not playing dress-up or cooking or cleaning the same messes for the 26th time in the same day, I like to make pretty things.
Here is her stunning creation:
Thank you so much to Elena for helping us kick off our first challenge with her *stunning* creation. Isn't it gorgeous?
This week we're offering a prize to anyone who plays along!

What a great team of designers and beautiful samples! I follow this blog via email subscription. I am looking forward to playing and getting my holiday cards done throughout the year!
amazing first challenge showcase! What a great idea :)
On your first post I became a follower. On this post, I subscribed to the email. I'm hoping to enter the challenge soon. This looks like a great place to be!
This is a great idea. I'm thinking of making Christmas cards all year long because after 2012 Christmas ended, I didn't want to stop making Christmas cards. It will also avoid the crazy rush during the holidays.
Beautiful colors and such amazing inspiration! I am looking forward to playing along!
Fabulous inspiration and fantastic colors to create with! Very excited to be a follower and play along!

It's a great encouragement to us to not be swamped when it comes closer to Christmas! Fun to play, Rx
Fantastic line-up of designers! So much inspiration, it actually pushed me to give Christmas crafting in February a go. Something that never happens :)
Thanks for a fun new challenge!
Such a great idea! Now, it 's gonna be Chrismas all year long!
