Christmas cards done and dusted


Yes have finished my 103 Christmas cards, but as a little fed up with cream, gold and burgundy colours because of the wedding, I decided to go contemporary,...


And also to save time I made them in batches, so even though 103 were made they were divided into 4 different types of cards...


These were made using Marianne dies...



A cuttlebug embossing folder, which was one of the first I brought, some 8 years ago was used for these cards...



Spellbinder dies...



And finally I used some folded up docraft Christmas paper and Hunkydory Christmas sentiments, in fact all the 103 cards had Hunkydory sentiments, as they matched the colours of the cards just right...


Now for making my gift tags, oh and I've still got to write out the cards yet, lol...

Friends that are new maybe all that is true.

But there's never a friend like the old.

The former is help by silver threads.

The latter by anchors of gold.

On a crafty roll...


OK very, very simple pages, as they paper said it all...


I carefully cut round some of the leaves, so I could tuck the photos behind, as felt the trees were part of the photos...


Also here is the card I did Sam and Matt, I just had to use the photo of the cake decoration her dad made for her...


Again very simple, but that's my way of crafting, lol. I've actually started on my Christmas cards last week too... So in all, am on a crafty roll.
