CHNC challenge 86: include a building

Not so many entries for last week's challenge - perhaps everyone was enjoying the summer weather and not wanting to think about festive food. However, those who did enter the challenge did so with some wonderfully yummy cards - thank you, everyone.

Before I get on to today's challenge, I need to let you know the winner of challenge 85. Unfortunately, there could only be one winner and this is the result of using random.org:

Number 3: Papersniffer (Wendy)

who shared this lovely card

Congratulations, Wendy! Please email me at hazelharris@ntlworld.com so I can arrange for you to claim your $21 gift certificate from Bugaboo Stamps.

Challenge 86

For today's challenge I'm asking you to include a building (or part of a building) on your Christmas card

For this challenge Digi Doodle Shop are once again generously giving a $10 gift certificate to the randomly-chosen winner.

DigiDoodle Shop

DigiDoodle Shop is the results of a mother and daughter’s love for the arts and crafts.  It was started a little over 3 years ago with a little more than 100 stamps, and has since then grown to almost 500 stamps.  Joy (the mother of this team) designs realistic images, while Judy (aka/daughter) loves the “fun side of life”, and create images with a cartoon flair.  Having these two complimenting styles have enabled

Digi Doodle Shop to offer a wide variety of stamps.

It is a real honor and pleasure to sponsor this challenge, and we look forward to seeing all the amazing creations.  We thank the design team for their incredible creations, and wish all the participants the very best of luck in this challenge.

Thank you so much for having us, and again the very best of luck to all of you.

Sincerely,

Judy and Joy

Unfortunately, there is no Guest Designer this week, but there will be someone joining me next week.

For my card I've used the Christmas church digital stamp kindly supplied by Digi Doodle Shop - you can read more about my card here on My Crafty Outlook.

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 building or part of a building - a roof, a door, etc.

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 24 August.  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 25 August, when I will be joined by a Guest Designer.

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.

If you haven't done so already, please become a follower and grab my bright pink button to post on your sidebar and help continue to spread the word about this challenge blog - thank you.
