More Christmas Cards

I've been selling Christmas cards left and right and I needed to make a few more and since I can't mass produce one card, I went looking for inspiration in blogland challenges.


This card uses the Hero Arts sketch challenge.  Don't you just love the Tim Holtz seasonal colors?  Simon Says Stamp Challenge is having an "Anything Goes" week, think they'll get to 1000?  And Wee Memories is having a "Free For All"


This girly Christmas card uses the Play Date Cafe colors and I based it on the Skippings Stones sketch, but oops, missed the deadline.


Materials: Hero Arts Berries and Poinsettas, PTI Photo Finishers sentiment, PTI double sided banner die, PTI white card stock, Stampin Up red card stock, Tim Holtz distress inks festive berries, evergreen bough, iced spruce, Versafine black ink

Ornament card: Hero Arts ornament, Waltzingmouse Stamps Frame It sentiment, PTI Limitless Layers 2 1/2 inch dies, pink paper from my stash, PTI kraft and white card stock, Coredinations purple card stock, Versafine black ink, May Arts ribbon

Great use of those new colors on the first card and your use of the PDC colors are just perfect too. Perhaps making christmas cards s really your thing if you can't keep them stocked!!
