OWH MWT ~ Holiday/Winter Themed Cards in Multiples

Happy October 2nd everybody~!!   I wanna take a second to shout to the mountaintop that this is the month that my husband returns from Deployment ~ YEAH!!!

I was asked a short time back if I would make some cards for an OWH Mid-Week Throwdown Challenge and that challenge was to make Holiday and/or Winter Themed cards that didn't say Merry Christmas on them.  The cards could then be used all through the winter months.   Of course I said  yes.. because I love helping out OWH any way I can and I absolutely love making multiples of cards.

I have three different cards that I have to show you  (the last one is the one that was featured on the OWH site) ~ I am including measurements for each card as well.    I hope that you give making multiples a whirl.
