Here we are ... It's officially December!
We hope you are well under way to creating
your holiday cards for the season.
There is nothing like a handmade greeting!
Beyond our challenge here in The Cafe, we hope
you will find the projects inspiring....not just from
our Uber-Talented Design Team
but from the entries that hang in the gallery each week.
We appreciate all the compliments that come in for our
work that hopefully inspires you, but we can't speak
enough about the talent that comes from our players!

This week's host is Senior Designer Julie Ranae.
"Of course I am beginning to get that Christmas
feeling as the snow begins to fall and the music
at the mall has shifted from smooth jazz to
'Santa Baby'...and although I don't use traditional
colors nearly as much as I used to, I have to say
that I am really inspired by the color palette of
a rich red and fresh white, thus your challenge
for this week!"
