My Christmas Card creations...

It's such a busy time of year but I was determined to send out and give out my own handmade cards this year.  So here a few of my Christmas card creations.
 This one was done from a cut file on my Silhouette Cameo.
 On this one I used my new stamp & gear set by Inkadinkado, the added glitter glue for a little sparkle.
 For the wreath and the sentiment backing I used Spellbinder dies the Foliage die and the Mix & Match Resplendent Rectangles and I also used the Martha Stewart branch punch to mix in between the Spelldinder sprigs.
 This was a wooden block stamp for the tree that I heat embossed with a pretty pearlized green embossing powder then used my glitter glue and flat backed pearls to decorate, the Merry Christmas is also heat embossed with really pretty red with flecks of gold embossing powder.
For this card I used copper colored paper that has a pearl essence some 2" wide ribbon in the back ground with the border done with a lacey Martha Steward punch, I put a Perfect Pearl  dot on each little flower and I deconstructed a bunch of poinsettias flowers to add to the card.   The sentiment was heat embossed and I used Tim Holtz Distress Ink.  This one is actually my favorite, I wasn't able to capture the true beauty by camera.  I really need to practice getting better shots.
Last but not a all least, the manger scene was done from a wooden stamp from Michael's and heat embossed, though it very simple I really like this one too. These were so fun to make but next year I'm going to start much earlier, I didn't get to send out a many as I wanted to do the getting such a late start.  I hope to do better next year.

I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas & Happy, Healthy & Blessed New Year!

Happy Crafting!
