Christmas Cards

Some time ago I had told the story of my paper challenged friends, well they are still paper challenged, they came down for a short visit in August but I will not see them again until after the New Year, so I made them several Christmas cards to send. This way they could have their choice.

The below cards are Cased from Maleita, I am terrible I almost cased it totally, love the black and white card, Maleita had used an image on the front of her card I used a sentiment, did not want the case police coming after me so I had to change something. I embossed the white paper and used the CTMH Merry Christmas Sentiment stamp, with some paper piercing. I love this layout and the black and white, also did these cards for my Holiday Swap

I love these cards the Trees from from CTHM, some ribbon and embellishments and these were done. I masked the trees and then stamped the background with snowflakes.


This card is just some pattern paper and that CTMH Sentiment.

These are one of my favorites, the image is from Cornish Heritage Farm, I just love this mailbox stamp, the round sentiment is from SU. The background paper is from an old Joanns' Christmas pack that I purchased a couple of years ago.

Love these cute little snowmen from Wordsworth, the believe is another CTMH sentiment stamp and the snowflakes I stamped in white on the paper are from the same snowman set from Wordsworth. Not to sure about the paper, think it is also from the Joanns' paper stack. I have way too much paper.



Think I already showed this one, the paper is from Joann's Christmas stack from a few years back and the stamp is from SU.

The only stamping on this one is from my Michael's $ Ho Ho Ho stamp, it is such a cute little stamp. The candycanes are diecuts from many moons ago.


I made some kids cards for them as there are nieces, nephews, grandchildren. Paper is Joann's Christmas stack . The large snowman is from Cornish Heritage Farm, I used my copic markers to color him. The other snowman and snowflake are tags from Target $ spot, now don't go running out to Target, they are a couple of years old.


And finally the two cards below are a mixture of Joann's Christmas Stack and I'm not sure who else. The stamp is the two step package stamp from SU.

I know that I am very bad at listing papers and stamps used, I do so appreciate it in other blogs and am trying to get it right with mine.
