Ok...I confess I partially cheated on this one. I had these 2 cards half started...at least the images colored and they have been sitting in my "unfinished object box for about a year."
Life this week has been extremely busy, so in order to work for this challenge...I decided to grab a UFO to complete it! There - two things done, RIGHT? LOL

Both of your cards are gorgeous!!! I don't think you cheated at all. :)
Wow. I love both your cards. What cheating? WE all have something in a UFO stack somewhere, and now and then we need to draw on it. Great job!
What a pair of wonderfully beautiful cards. Love the term UFO...they are all over my craft space! You did a great job of finishing up a couple of your UFO's and so nicely done too!
These are gorgeous and your coloring is impeccable! Perfect manly cards! {SMILES}
Wow UFO's huh? - Now I know what to call all those things floating around in containers on my stamping desk!
Wonderful cards. - I am sad to see Noble Deer being retired as it is such a great outdoors stamp suitable for lovers of nature both men and women.
These are beautiful, Chris. I've never seen that church in anything but a Christmas card and you've done it here so wonderfully. I'm very impressed.
Both cards are absolutely lovely! The coloring is fantastic on both and I love the subtle color that the rick racks adds to the second card!
WOW! Fabulous watercoloring on each of these cards....which are both wonderful! Nope...no cheating here!
Hey Chris!! Happy Friday! I really love both of these cards! The colors are rich and the images, etc. are subtle...perfect! Very "comfortable & homey" cards!!! (there isn't much in my book that is better than comfortable and homey!)
Have a great weekend!

Both of your cards are just wonderful! I especially love how your used the Silent Night set! Beautifully done Chris! :D
These cards are so beautiful!
Beautiful cards! And, using one of those UFO's is a bonus!
I almost missed seeing your cards..oohhh and wow on the beauty of both of them. My card was pieces of UFO's also..that's how we create..

Chris, both of these are winners (regardless of when they were started :-)). I love the richness of colors.
Nice!! You did a great job with the watercolor crayons. Maybe they will be my next medium to work on.
Wonderful cards, both of them. I am so sad that Noble Deer is retiring. I always wanted it and never purchased it so I swore if it was not on the retirement list I was ordering it as soon as I seen the list. Now I don't know,lol. It is such a great set.
both of your cards are just stunning! I LOVE both layouts - Great cards!
Both cards are wonderful...great job with the challenge...
They are both great! It's not cheating, they weren't done! I sit and color sometimes when I can't get inspired, then next time it's grab and go, LOL. Love the top card especially.
