Christmas cards

Last time I shared the Thanksgiving cards for the Veterans Home, today I am sharing the Christmas cards I made for them.  I just love the calming feeling Thomas Kinkade pictures give so that is the set I reached for to make my cards. This set was from last year Hunkdory put out that I bought at Barnes & Noble.

In my first card I added some Hot off the press Dazzle stickers with it to border the picture.


My next card I used my postage stamp die to frame the picture, I am showing all of these at an angle so you can see the dimension in these.  In this set they all were hand cut out.





Our weather has finally broke today and what a break it is, last 3 days we have been in the 90's and today's high is 75 and it looks like we have already reached that and it is getting cooler as the day goes, Wow!  I think Autumn is here :)

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,

Connie

Ohhh, you made Christmas cards, too! These are just gorgeous with the TK images! I still have some TK stamps. They're a chore to color, but come out so pretty in the end.

Another kind and generous act! These are fabulous, the light looks amazing! I have been in a local TK gallery, they have dimmers on the light switches so you can actually witness the changes in his paintings, wonderful and magical! Great post!!!
