Christmas Cards


 Morning everyone, I got busy yesterday and made a couple more Christmas cards.  My plan this year is to use a lot of my stash so that next year I can have lots of new papers. :-)  I bought some Christmas pre-cut 3D Paper Tole from Blue Edge Crafts as toppers for my cards which gave me a starting point when making the cards.

Guess I have to work on the lighting for photos in my new craft room.  :-)
I love these cute puppy paper tole images.  I have teamed it with a a glitter  die cut Best Wishes that I have had in my stash for a few years but has always been too big for any card I have made.

Isn't he the cutest.  Puppy and holly, you can't go wrong.  I have used the December Sketch from Craftmad to create this card.

Found some great Stampin Up papers for this one.  Love double sided paper as you can trust that the reverse will look wonderful with the front pattern.

More Stampin Up papers but these are last, I can buy new next year.  Sticker sentiment from Sticker Store.

These christmas bird stickers from Sticker Store are so pretty. I had fun - I think the term is collaging - small piece of paper to the back of the sticker.  Green for the holly leaves, the wonderful taupe snowflake paper for the bird.  I coloured the berries with my Pink Wink of Stella Pen. Teamed the sticker with Blue Edges Laser cut background.


Similar card, bird facing opposite way.
I love all the gold on this card, this is the very last of the beautiful holly papers.

Well today is a day for me to start and finish my christmas present shopping.  Fingers crossed.  Have a good one everyone.
