June Christmas Cards

 Whew!  I got my June Christmas Cards done just in the nick of time!  As most of you already know, I play the Splitcoaststampers Christmas Card Challenge where we make Christmas Cards all year long so that were not stressed out during the busy holiday season.  I make five cards a month so that I'll have about sixty cards at the end of the year.   I make a tall card 4 x 8 so that I can fit a photo collage and a Christmas letter inside.

Because I was pressed for time getting these cards done this month, I chose to use vintage images from Crafty Secrets so no stamping or coloring was involved other than the sentiment.  I did the same layout on all cards, and only changed the papers on some of them.


 The blue patterned paper is all from DCWV.  I used glitter paper for the panel behind the main image.  Ribbon and brads were added for embellishment.
 The sentiment is from retired Stampin' Up! "So Many Scallops".








 After I ran out of snowy Crafty Secrets scenes, I chose this vintage image.  Because the colors were different, I had to change the papers.  They are from PTI "Holiday Vintage Prints".


The gold trees are brads.


Have a great day!  Amy
