It's Tuesday and time to announce the Rock Star and Rockers for Marsha's "All About Christmas" Challenge.  But first, we'd like to thank everyone who played along with with us.  Your entries were wonderful and as a result it made our choices harder.

Jane Willis

Judy's Choice:  I love the total cuteness of this card and all the attention to detail!

Angie Cimbalo

Heidi's Choice:  The elegance and simplicity (and the image) appeal to me. And I love the way she's used the piercing dies so effectively.

Pretti D

Gail's Choice:  I love the greens and blues against the black background, with the silver border. A very striking design!

Sharon

Penny's Choice: At first glance I was really struck by the magical quality of the deer image but then the galaxy of stars created on the masked background captured my heart. I was also very inspired by the non-traditional mix of light blue and lilac for a Christmas card.

Monika

Libby's Choice:  Love the traditional colors. Cute layout too. And, that elf!! Adorbs!

 

Donna Scholz

Charlotte's Choice:  I love the white and gold colour scheme. The deer is very pretty and pops beautifully on its focal panel against the lovely vellum background.

JanR

Kath's Choice: I love a good shaker card!
