Before I get on to today's challenge, I need to let you know the winner of challenge 69. Unfortunately, there could only be one winner and this is the result of using random.org - not surprising really considering the number of chances that Catherine had of winning!:
Number 11: Catherine (Catiecuddles)
Congratulations, Catherine! Please email me at hazelharris@ntlworld.com so I can arrange for you to claim your $10 gift certificate from Digi Doodle Shop.
Challenge 70
For today's challenge I'm asking you to include a greeting/sentiment on your Christmas card, but wihout the word 'Christmas'
And for this week's challenge Lili of the Valley are giving a £10 voucher to spend in their online store to the randomly chosen winner. I'm sure that most of you are familiar with their lovely stamps and die cuts - just click on the link to see the fabulous range that they have.
For my card I've used offcuts of My Mind's Eye Glitter paper and the sketch given for Christmas challenges with sketches 25. You can read more about my card here on my regular crafting blog My Crafty Outlook.
This is another card I've made today that doesn't mention the word 'Christmas' - you can read more about it on My Crafty Outlook here. This card really is black, white with a bit of red, but for some reason here the white looks pinkish, but IRL it is definitely WHITE.
And another card I've just shown on My Crafty Outlook here (Tuesday 1 May):
Now it's over to you. As usual, you can use any materials, any techniques, as long as the end result is a Christmas card - and this week please include a greeting/sentiment, but don't use the word 'Christmas' - so you might want to use Season's Greetings, Compliments of the Season, With love ... or whatever - I'm sure you can all think of something to put on your card that doesn't include the word 'Christmas'.

I look forward to seeing what you come up with for this challenge - please add a link to your blog post (not your blog, but the actual post where your card can be found) by 22:00 UK time Friday 4 May. Please mention my blog and create a link within the post for your creation.
You can enter as many times as you wish (a good way to build up your stock of Christmas cards) and also link to any other challenges that allow you to do so, but new work only, please.
A new challenge will be set on 5 May.
Please add your link to inlinkz. If by any chance it disappears, please leave a comment with the link to your blog post and I will make sure it is added.
