Christmas Cards

Now that it's finally after Thanksgiving I don't feel so bad about ONLY making Christmas cards for the next little while.  I still have a ways to go, but wanted to share some of the latest.

I decided to play around some more with the pocket card idea.  I have several metallic letter-sized envelopes I never use...so I thought I'd make a letter-sized pocket card as well. (Tutorial coming soon!)




I also finished up some of the smaller ones I was working on (tutorial for these here)


I'm having so much fun with my Silhouette portrait!  If you are thinking about getting one, I highly recommend it.  I love that you can download all the free fonts online and then cut them out with the Silhouette.  Such fun!

The inspiration from this card came from here.


I am adding to my collection of Spectrum Noir markers, so I couldn't wait to try something with red and green.  I love these markers, and the fact that they are so much less expensive than Copics!


Here is a simple card with the true meaning of Christmas.  I love Nativity Scenes and have been collecting them for years.  One of my favorites is an igloo with eskimos from Alaska where I served as a missionary a few years back.

This is a very simple one using two dimensional stickers.  I just drew in some gold lines to make the ornaments hang, and cut the text out on the Silhouette.

Thanks for stopping by and have a Very Merry Christmas!
