Week 323: NORTH

Two weeks flew by and now we're headed north!  Where does this cue take your creativity?  Once again, this will be another two-week challenge to give you plenty of time to play along during the busy holiday season!

As always, remember the following CAS guidelines when creating your design:

1. One main image
2. Lots of open space, uncluttered
3. Limited layers & embellishments
4. Quick & easy to recreate (Note: It may take a while to create a design you like, but once you have that design, making more should be a piece of cake!)
