Are you ready for some Christmas eyecandy tonight? I issued a challenge over the weekend to all of the past and present team CSS team members to make a Christmas card with one of these sketches:
I know you're going to LOVE what everyone has designed for us tonight!

I sure enjoyed playing with your sketch and participating in the blog hop. I feel silly that I didn't realize the band was to go behind the image and over the mat. Duh! I shall try that next time.
Great job with this fun hop Jessica!
