Ho Ho Ho All The Way To Australia

Hello Nomad Friends.  I hope you are keeping warm and toastie.  We've got a cold front moving in from Siberia and the winds are wild.  As the week progresses we are supposed to swap winds for cold temperatures and today, baby, it's cold outside!!!   But at least it's dry.  I really am not a fan of the white stuff.  Anyway, on with the business of the day and it's time for the Card Chain Challenge reveal!!  In December we played Tic Tac Toe.  I was in a B space so I made a grid with 25 'B' words.  I know a few of you found this challenging, but wow, what awesome cards!!   27 in total.  Do hop over and check them out.  I sent my card to Robyn in Australia.

I went seasonal and bloke, black, belt, bubbles, buddy for my options. 

 

Here's the gorgeous card I received from Joanne in Connecticut

You can see the whole REVEAL here

 Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz

What a great take on the tic tac toe board, your card is fantastic! Wouldn't have thought to include bubbles with Santa but your bubble background works so well! Thanks for the challenge and for hosting!
Happy New Year!

It sure was a challenge with all these B's Gail!! But I felt very accomplished when I created a viable design! Love this Santa (I have him too!) and he looks great in front of the bold embossed bubble background! Love that friendship sentiment as well - that feels REALLY cold to me when you say it's coming from Siberia!! We have not had any snow here in MA yet and I'm wanting a little! Julia xx

Yes, I found it challenging, but it was good for us to be challenged. You just have to look at the results to prove it. Love your Santa on the gold background. So dramatic. Perhaps Norway is not the best place to be living if you dislike snow! Hope the summers make up for it. We have had the winds and have 3 fence panels down, such a pain xx
