Cardinal Christmas

I just got back from a quick trip back home to Michigan to see family and have an early Christmas gathering.  My brother and sister in law that live out of the country couldn't make it but all the rest of us were there.  These cards are what I sent all our brothers and sisters, we have 9 between us and I ended up doing one for Amanda too that you will see at the end of the post.

Heartfelt Creations Cardinal Family stamps and dies
Impression Obsession Pine Bough
Memory Box Woodland Branch
Cuttlebug Swiss Dots Embossing folder
Marvy--Snow Marker

Here is a closeup, I liked seeing others use of the Marvy snow marker but I just couldn't get it to look as nice, and wow does that stuff stink.

On the second day I had 4 more to make and those I ended up using Liquid Pearls in White Opal for the snow.

This last one as I was inking my signature on the back of the card I dropped the stamp and ended up with a black spot on the front, so this one ended up going to my Daughter and Son in law, so they have a special card :)

I used a scrap of Christmas paper from my stash and added some scor tape on top of that and sprinkled some Glass Glitter from Melissa Francis on the top.

I am still so far behind on my Christmas cards, don't know if everyone will get one this year.  Going home for the weekend meant I missed 3 days of cardmaking time but I am sure happy we were able to go.

Have a Great week,
Thanks for stopping by,
Connie
