Fit & Fabulous

What a fabulous gallery of Shape-Up cards we have this week ... so many clever creations that it almost makes me want to do a few jumping jacks ... don't get carried away ... I said ALMOST.

Although it was seriously difficult to narrow down our choices, here are a few designers we thought did a particularly wonderful job interpreting this week's prompt:



"Marie not only used a lovely ornament shape, she also added some fabulous iris folding, sequined trim, and silver topper ... a shaped-card that's also a wonderful holiday decoration."




"Rose's cute little house made us smile ... she decorated it inside & outside for the holidays with a bit of snowy glitter on the rooftop"



"Designeal created this wonderful star album that can be a card ... and an album ... and even a holiday decoration ... what a versatile shaped creation."

I know we say it every week ... but seriously ... if you haven't taken the time to wander through this week's gallery and leave a little jingle belles love, you should ... so many inspiring cards to get those holiday design ideas flowing.

Make sure you come back and join us at midnight for another fun holiday card prompt (actually, we'll be in bed at midnight ... but our jingle belles alter-egos will be awake to make sure the prompts go on).
