Most likely my last Christmas Cards this year

Yesterday I worked on a few more cards. But it is time to get them in the mail so I won't be doing many more Christmas cards.  Back to all occasion cards again.  But here are my last 2 cards.

The first one is really simple and is a 5 minute card made in under 5 minutes.  To see more of these kind of cards click here.


My next card took a little bit more time.  It is a HobbyDot card.  Very well known in Holland.  I have always like the looks of them but never done any.  I got some for my birthday this past year and finally got to use it.  Boy I have respect for the people using this method.  It took me at least 1 hour to make this card.  But here it is and I am quite pleased with it.


Enjoy.

More Christmas cards again

Some more of my Christmas cards.  As you can tell I have been working very hard to get them all done before Christmas this year.

This one I made for a friend at a card making afternoon with my friends.  I really liked the 'free' draw of the branch.

Another card using embossing folders .  I misted the paper with shimmery paint first before I embossed it.  I got the idea from Carol and her version can be found here.


More to come!

Christmas Again

Some more of my Christmas Cards I have been making for family and friends.

This idea I got from Nancy Y and you can find her version of this card here.


I did not use the letterpress method but just embossed the white background.

This is an another sample.


Let me know what you think.

Time for Christmas cards

I have been working on my Christmas cards and getting ideas from the internet.

The following 2 cards are from the new CD from Technique Junkies called 3D & Fun Fold.  The CD can be purchased here.

These are cards I made for my grandchildren.

Card for a boy - outside and inside



Card for a girl - outside and inside




Now on to making more Christmas cards.
