Christmas Cards Day 5

Can you believe I've posted 5 days in a row?  I've been pretty lazy with my blog lately, but that's just because my life keeps getting in the way.  I like these recent short and sweet posts... quick and easy just like my Christmas cards have been.

This card wasn't exactly quick with all the heat embossing, but if you set it up assembly-line-style it doesn't take too long. Nothing beats heat embossing for a little bit of shimmer without too much bling:
Snowflakes were cut out with the CTMH Cricut Art Philosphy cartridge, then stamped with the coordinating snowflake images from D1480 Snowflakes stamp set in versamark,  then heat embossed using silver and pearl. Added a little extra sparkle with some rhinestones and silver ribbon. Papers are from CTMH Wonderland Paper kit.  This card is really pretty up close, click on it to see for yourself.

Thanks for popping in today!

Christmas Cards Day 3

Another cased Christmas card for you.  I was inspired by a beautiful card made by Darleen Adamo, and I wish I could find the link to post here, but I had this saved in my inspiration folder b.p.(before pinterest)  Now I pin inspiring ideas to my pin boards on Pinterest, so finding links will be a snap.


It's hard to see in the photo, but I stamped a glittery snowflake in the center cutout portion using CTMH Create a Shade Pearl Paint.

Stay tuned for more Christmas cards!

As promised, here's another set of cards I made for this year's collection.


And the same card, just flipped sideways:

Stamp: CTMH C1469 December 25th
Card base and cut shapes made with CTMH Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge Z1686

I totally cased these cards from CTMH TV.  Here is a handy dandy video tutorial:
