May Sketch Challenge
Hello everyone, it's Ruth here excitedly announcing that I'll be the challenge hostess here at 52 {C}CT during May! As usual, we kick off a new month with a sketch challenge. We'd love it if you took part in this week's challenge and made a card featuring this layout - you know it makes sense to add another Christmas card to the box! You can substitute shapes, rotate the sketch and make a square or rectangular card - as long as the basic layout comes through to us, it's all good!
We have a fabulous GDT this month.
Please welcome--Judy V of Created Just 4 U!
Here's her take on our sketch this week~
*Please read the challenge requirements carefully before creating your card. We will never delete any submissions that do not follow our challenge rules; however, only cards that meet the requirements will be considered by the Design Team for our weekly Top Honors and Honorable Mention voting.
*Please link back to our blog in your post so that others can join in the fun.

Hello all! It's Deborah with you again this week, and it's time for our colour challenge at 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown. You must pick three or more colours from the graphic.
You may also use white, cream, black, gold or silver as neutrals for your card base, embellishments or inks. However, the main colours must come from the graphic. I know that it is sometimes difficult to work out the colours on different PC screens, for reference I've given SU names:
