Prepare to see several cards that I have used my new EK success snowflake punch on. Spent more hours than you would believe coming up with the argyle card. Originally the cream glittery flakes were for another card, but I just couldn't make them work with the other paper. Argyle was created from white paper, embossing and then rubbing an ink pad over the surface of the paper. I used red ink (really!). The card and the pic both look more pink than red. Stampin Up set used: Party Punch. Cards are 4" x 5.5" (A2).
Now this card was made with little time involvement...credit for so much time already spent on the first card! I love little details on cards like rhinstones and brads. The neatest new item I have found is a cut and emboss folder by Cuttlebug. It creates the kraft colored base under the make merry. Stampin Up greeting comes from the Berry Christmas stamp set. Cards are 4" x 5.5" (A2).

Make Merry!
Christmas cards...hard to believe, but I am again in the time that if I dont start now then I wont have enough cards ready for the rush of the season. It is amazing how time really does fly. Here I used a non-traditional yellow as the backdrop. The stamp set is Berry Christmas from Stampin Up. The patterned paper was created using the poinsettia stamp and stamping with first and second generation images.
