I did want to post these yesterday, but I was called into work. Then I worked today and took pictures when I got home. I have been going crazy trying to get all my Christmas cards done! I am beginning to think I must like stress, cause I seem to always be doing things last minute, why do I not start these cards in July or something? lol
The 4 following cards were done in one evening. I did 3 of each. I really needed to make some fast cards, and the cuttlebug was my best friend that evening! lol All folders and dies are Cuttlebug. The stamped card uses a sentiment from Cornish Heritage Farms. The insides are just stamped with black ink, saying "Christmas Blessings". I wanted to keep them very simple and hopefully elegant. Of course, I had to add a ton of stickles!!! The squares on the 2 cards were done with the nestibilities. Dazzling Diamonds glitter was used on the snowflakes over top of clear glue.
Now this is something I have never done before, and it was a real learning curve for me! I used way too much paper, and made MANY mistakes! lol In the end I am pleased with it, and I know as I do more I will get better! This was made for a friend, I am going to be putting her Christmas gift inside! I hope she likes it!
Well, thank you so much for dropping by tonight! Take care and don't rush so much that you don't enjoy the holiday season! I will be back tomorrow!
Sweet dreams,
