It's time to Pile It On. This week the challenge PIO#33 is "Blue, Blue, Blue" (use three shades of blue on your creation) so how about a blue Christmas card. Our sponsor this week is Krisi's Kreations. Due to some computer issues I was unable to use one of the sponsor's images. So please visit the site to see what they've got. If you're a fan of templates there's some really good one there, including a "slice of cake". I do love what crafters do with that one and I heard tell that one of the dt at Pile It On was going to use that for her sample so you can also head over to the PIO challenge blog to see some of Krisi's Kreations being used. While you're visiting you can check out the rules (not much except the usual no back linking sort of stuff) and that's where you'll find the linky thingy when you're ready to show off your creation.
