Two Special Christmas Cards


Well I was asked to create two special cards for a couples loved ones....I wanted to use all CTMH and I wanted it to fit with the couples style so I chose the Mistletoe Level 2 Paper (X7130B) I used two patterns out of the Originals Card Confidence Program (9032) Each one of these cards is a 5" x 7" card. The one abouve used Tag Trio pattern and was a great card to try my hand at using more layers and distressing techniques and different brads. I used the My Acrylix All The Best Stamp Set, Mistletoe Level 2 Assortment(Z1330), Cranberry Exclusive Ink(Z2116), and Chocolate Exclusive Ink(Z2111) I made a slight mis-stamp on the inside but I figues it adds character and that handstamped touch....Frankly...it was a total  mistake!


On this one I used another pattern from the Originals book and also tried a few distressing techniques on this one as well. I used the Mistletoe Level 2 Paper(X7130B) for this card. The stamp Set used for this card is the Peace On Earth (D1243) I used Cranberry Exclusivve Ink (Z2116) and New England Ivy Exclusive Ink(Z2135) THe brads used to anchor the front layer are from the Mini Medley Accents Shades of Chocolate Collection. The ribon and little gem for bling factor are not CTMH.

Hope that these are well liked as I have been tryibng to expand my comfort level and learn new techniques too!

 Merry Christmas!

  1. These are gorgeous cards. I really like the tags on the first one. The turned up corner is neat on the second one, also!
