Pines and Poinsettias

More Christmas cards! I have been hard at work on Christmas cards so here are two more to share today.
I am really loving the new Pines and Poinsettias set from the Holiday Mini Catalog, I keep coming back to it!



I also love the Snow Burst embossing folder from the mini catalog...so many uses!  My Big Shot really came in handy for these cards.  I embossed plus uses the Top Note die cut.  I used a retired designer series paper for the first design and for the flap of the custom envelope.



 I used the new Holly Berry Designer Series Paper for the second card, I just love the color combination.  I intend to do lots of cards with this gorgeous paper!

See you soon, I have some great Christmas punch art for you next!!

If it doesn't move...stamp it!

Christmas Cards

I have been so busy, that time has gotten away from me!!! Last time I posted it was time for Halloween goodies and now here we are getting ready for Christmas!!! 
I have lots and lots of Christmas cards to share, so I'll show a few at a time.  This first one was for a stamp-a-stack I did the week before last.  I like the layout of the card, simple yet elegant. The greeting I used is from a retired Christmas set, but everything else is current.


This card has a similar layout, but I used the Pines and Poinsettias set from the current holiday mini catalog in place of the punch art poinsettia. I also changed the embossing folder which I highlighted with white gel pen.



This is a great card to mass produce. In fact, I made twenty five for my sister-in-law as a gift.  I also made custom envelopes to match.  I finally found a way to use up some extra large envelopes I bought awhile back.  I was able to make 2 custom envelopes out of each.  It's really simple.  I sealed the envelope, cut it in half and added designer paper for the flap.







Please come back for more Christmas card ideas! Happy stamping!
