Christmas Cards

I have been making Christmas cards again this year, and am happy to say that I am almost done!!  Here are a few pics to show you just a few of the cards that I have come up with!!  Some have been CASED and others just kinda came together!!


So for this one the deer and sentiment are gold heat embossed.  I used gold eyelets in the corners, and found this cool gold ribbon in my stash!!  Now when it comes to decorating my house, I do not like the traditional Christmas colours, but I think they worked out wonderfully on this card!! 


I love this tree!!  It has so many possibilites!!  This card is a CASE, meaning copied.  :)  The snowflakes were stamped in a blue ink, and then I re-stamped them with a glus pad and sprinkled glitter on them.  I now have glitter everywhere, but that's ok!!  If or when I do this again, I may choose a darker blue for the snowflakes.  The bird was stamped from the same set and paper pieced on. 


This is another CASE card.  Simple and beautiful!!  :)


Another CASE!  The branches are from the SU set Noble Deer.  The ornament was firstly stamped, then punched out to create my own background.  Tied some ribbon around the top, and voila!!  I used Elegant Eggplant as the card base.  Not a traditional Christmas colour, but I love the way it looks!!  :)



That's it for now!!  I have made lots more cards, but don't plan on posting them all!!  Thanks for looking!!  :)
