It's Saturday... Some Challenges!

Happy Day after Christmas ;)
Hope y'all survived the day of festivities! I know some of you are probably still going at it throughout the weekend! but everyone here is completly exhausted and we're taking the today (Saturday) to do nothing, lol - which technically means to do everything, since we have a million toys to rip out of boxes, put together and pry open battery comparments ;)  Wish us luck!

Ok, so I have 2 cards to share with you and the challenges that helped!

Here's Sassy Studio Designs 2nd to last challenge of the year!!!
This week's Dare to be Sassy Thursday is a Christmas Color Challenge...

Red and Green

I also used...
Cupcake Craft Challenges 71 - A Time for Celbration
Dare U 2 Digi Stamp Challenge 28 - Last minute Christmas cards

and it is loosely based but definitely inspired by Mojo Monday's Sketch 118.

BasicGrey Challenges Week 10 Color Combo - Cream, Pink, Blue (and for some odd reason I thought that green was included, lol!)
Digital Tuesday Challenge 38 - Let it snow!
and The Pink Elephant Sketch Challenge #46.
