Anyone who knows me, knows how crazy I am about Christmas. I just love this time of the year as it brings back so many happy memories from childhood. My lovely mum made Christmas so happy and magical, and I think we could all do with some magic and a bit of happiness right now.  

For this week's inspiration, we would like you to make a card that conjures up the winter wonderland theme, be it images, colours, embellishments and more, it's totally up to you! 

Our guest designer this week is ....

November Sketch Challenge

Hello and welcome to a brand new challenge at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown. I'm Gill and I shall be your hostess for the month of November. With just under 7 weeks to go to the big day, I hope you'll join me and the rest of the fabulous artists on the Design Team to play along with our sketches, themes and challenges. Our amazing Design Team members have been creating Christmas-themed cards all year long to give inspiration for your seasonal projects.

The first challenge of the month is always a sketch, and I hope you have fun with this one...


We'd love to see what you come up with. You can stretch this or use different shapes as long as we can see the basic sketch on your card.  Please feel free to use whatever method, techniques, colours, products and embellishments you wish - just remember to keep it Christmas.  We can't wait to see your amazing creations.


Our Guest Designer for this week is...
