As promised here is the first of my Christmas cards
I decided in January that I would make them through the year to save time in November and December when we are all super busy anyway
The papers are from a Trimcraft stack I bought in The Range at the end of last year, they are very traditional colours and style and beautiful quality
The card is a folded design with a band running through the middle so it gives a nice 3 dimensional effect when stood up
And here it is folded flat, ready for the envelope
I used a Nellie Snellen die for the oval, a Marianne die for the tree, Cuttlebug embossing folder on the tree, Stampin' Up stamp and punch for the flowers and the sentiment is also Stampin' Up
I will be interspersing the christmas cards with my regular cards and projects throughout the year and I also hope to get back into my scrapbooking soon, I have so many great photos to use
I will be back tomorrow with the first of the two cards I recently made for a special occasion
Love and baubles
