My Christmas Cards


This is the Christmas card I made for this year to send out to everyone. I made a pocket card I thought this would be the easiest way to show a picture of my kids. I think it is so much easier to take a photo at home rather then bring my kids somewhere to get it done. This way I can take my time doing it if they are picture ready that day great if not I will try another day. The dp I used is from stampin up. The sentiment is from papertrey ink. I used my storybook cricut cartridge for the label. I really do love this cartridge so many different things you can do with it. The flowers I got from Michaels in the bridal section.

More Christmas Cards

Sorry for the bad pictures today but it is rainy and cloudy here in CT and I usually take pictures outside. I love this stamp set from stampin up I think it's called To You and Yours. This pretty much is an all stampin up card wow I've never said that before. I did add glitter to the roof of the house but you can't really see it in the picture.


I made four of these sets of cards. I just love this paper for My Minds Eye so cute. For the cards I used all the diecuts in the paper pack and just added ribbon and buttons to each card and a stamped sentiment.

Merry Christmas

This card I used the tree from the flakey friends stamp set Stampin up. The sentiment is from many merry messages stampin up. The dp is My Minds Eye. I colored the tree with my markers added little snowflakes in the scallop of the card and that is it for this card.

Happy Holidays


All stamps on this card are from stampin up retired I think except the sentiment you can still get get it's in the Many Merry Messages set. This card is pretty staight forward colored the tree with markers the color is sage shadow as is the scallop circle love these dies so much. The dp is autumn leaves.

This card came out ok. It was just one of those cards where I was not sure where to go with it. I know I could have added something more to it I just didn't know what. The stocking is from a retired set from stampin up. The dp is My Minds eye. The rope ribbon is also from stampin up. The stocking I colored with my markers and mounted on a scallop rectangle from spellbinders. Then of course I added some buttons.

The sentiment is also stampin up. The dp is My Minds Eye I just love this set of paper so cute. Added ribbon anr a snowflake with some bling. Very easy card.

Merry Christmas Tree

I love how this card came I also just love this tree. The tree image is from Papertrey Ink's Believe set. The Sentiment is from a Martha Stewart stamp set I got from Walmart. The DP is also from Papertrey Ink. I colored in the tree with my stampin up markers which was time consuming when I'm doing ten of them but well worth the work. Then I just added ribbon.

Season's Greetings

For this card I made a star ornament from my cricut machine. The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink's Holiday wishes stamp set. Then the paper is from Basic Grey Figgy Pudding. To add a little more something to the card I added a snowflake with a gem in the middle and that's it.

Another season of friedndship


This time I am doing a Christmas card with this set from stampin up. A very simple card I used one of my cuttlebug dies for the corners just to add that little something. Can you believe it no ribbon or buttons on my card might have to add later. Stamped the snowflakes in craft white ink. The sentiment is from mixed messages papertrey ink.

Season's Greetings

For this card I used the stamp set called perfect presentation from stampin up alot of great images in this set. Used old DP from last year sage shadow cardstock that seemed to go pretty good with this DP. Added a scallop edge towards the bottom and a white gel pen to add a little accent.
Here is a pretty simple card I just love these pinecones from the papertrey ink set called first fruits the sentiment is also from papertrey ink. I just used kraft card stock my all time fav and some old DP that I purchased last year I think from Walmart. Then I used the scallop rectangle. This is a two step stamp set makes everything easy and clean looking

Here are some more Christmas cards the sentiment is from papertrey ink stamp set called Holiday Wishes perfect for the holidays alot of great sentiments. The paper is from DCWV Christmas stack this year. I wanted to use a flower to match the DP and the only thing I really had to use was the flower punch from stampin up and this hostess set that is retired. I think it came out pretty good.

Christmas Cards

This stamp is a unity stamp from the September kit of the month. Love this stamp I thought it would be perfect for a Christmas card. I was going to watercolor this image but I didn't like how it looked so I decided to just color it in with my stampin up markers. The sentiment is also a retired stampin up set. The dp is a stack of Christmas paper I got last year. The ribbon I got at Michaels this week. They have a lot of great xmas ribbon.
Here is going to be one of many Christmas cards. Everything here is all retired stampin up stuff the stamps set I think is called festive favorites and the DP is also from last year that I had left over gotta love leftovers. I watercolored the trees to give it a soft look since my paper is a light color and of course had to add my button and ribbon in there.
