March Christmas Cards

Yay! I finished my March Christmas cards just in the nick of time! I had them done on Thursday, March 30th, I just couldn't post them till today. As many of you already know, I participate in the Christmas Card Challenge on Splitcoaststampers where we make Christmas Cards all year long so were not stressed out at Christmas trying to get all our cards done on time. I've committed to making 4 per month, that's only one card per week, so I'll have about 48 cards at the end of the year. Below are my Christmas Cards for the month of March. All the cards feature paper from the same Basic Grey pad 'Eskimo Kisses' and all the images are from the digital image set 'Traditional Christmas Stamps' from Blackleaf Studios, sold at MyGrafico. For my first card, I used the sleigh image from the set. I cut it out and popped it up on dimensionals. The Sketch is from 'Sunday Morning'. I put Stickles on the stars on the sleigh. My second card uses the tree image from the set. The sketch is from Splitcoaststampers (SC322) The sentiment is embossed with black glitter, and the main image panel is up on dimensionals.
My third card uses the Stocking image from the set. I put Liquid Applique on the cuffs and toes of the stockings. The sketch is from Clean and Simple.
And my last card features the bell image from the set. I did get the sketch from somewhere, but don't remember where. The ribbon on the bell is mounted up on dimensionals and I put Crystal Effects on the berries.

Thanks for looking at my Christmas Cards today. I know were all sick of snow and winter and really do not want to think of Christmas right now. I just heard on the radio that it is suppose to snow here in Northern Wisconsin again tonight. Ugh! It has been the LONGEST winter ever. Whatever happened to global warming? LOL!


Have a great day! Amy
