ITS NEVER TOO EARLY FOR C CARDS IS IT?

Hello my lovely blogging friends XXX  Its such a joy to be able to visit you & admire your creations, especially when my mojo is hiding under the mess on my desk hahaha

Today I thought I would blog some easy Christmas cards I have made...makes a change from DT work or challenges (more of that later haha).  I snapped up some Christmas chippie by K&Co in a sale & have played with those to make some pretty quick cards.  I think that when you decide to make your own they need to be pretty quick too, don't you???  Anyways...here you are...

I used plain white cards & stamped the holly border (Elusive Images) & added red stickles for the berries. Stuck on the chippie & added a wide organza ribbon...easy peasy!!!

The next ones were even quicker!!!  I painted the snowflakes with acrylic then added glossy accents & glitter.  Popped it over a wide organza ribbon onto some glittery paper & voila!!!  I made a whole batch of these!!!


Adding a wide organza ribbon seems to make the plainest of cards look fancy hahaha Well thats my story haha .  Off to finish my inchie...catch you later...HUGS XXX

Great Christmas cards Karen. No one would ever know they were quick to make. That's definitely the way to go at Christmas isn't it.
