Before I get on to today's challenge, I need to let you know the winner of challenge 102. Unfortunately, there could only be one winner and this is the result of using random.org:
Number 15: Michelle B
Congratulations, Michelle! Please email me at hazelharris@ntlworld.com so I can arrange for you to claim your $21 gift certificate from Bugaboo Stamps.
Challenge 103
For today's challenge I'm asking you to make
a Christmas birthday card or 'anything goes' as long as it's Christmas
Ooh la la Creations are generously sponsoring this challenge - a randomly-chosen winner will be able to choose a CD-rom of their choice (up to the value of £14.99) - and there are so many wonderful ones to choose from, just click on the link to have a look.
Even though I've been making cards throughout the year, I still needed to make quite a few yesterday and the day before (need 35 for John to send to the members of his bowls club), so I resorted to making batches using Anna Griffin supplies.
Here are some of them - more details here on My Crafty Outlook:
and here- although the cards are actually white they don't look it here (but needed to take photos in poor light before writing and sending the cards):
Just adding some more cards that you can read about here:
And some different ones here:
And more here:

And I've just added one more card here (more views of the card there as well as description):
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 or a Christmas birthday card. It's so near to Christmas now that this is an opportunity to make that last minute card!
