April Christmas Cards


Hello!  I finally finished all my April Christmas Cards.  As most of you already know, I participate in the Christmas Card Challenge on Splitcoaststampers.  We make Christmas Cards all year long, so were not stressed out in November/December trying to make them all at once.  I've committed to making four Christmas Cards a month (one per week), and it's quite the challenge to keep that commitment, especially in the spring/summer months!  But I did!  I've already shown you two of them in previous posts this month, so here are my final two:

The first one uses a very old retired set from Stampin Up! called 'O Tannenbaum'.  I stamped the image is Always Artichoke ink and cut it out and adhered it to the card stock.  I put Stickles on the star and candles, and Crystal Effects on the ornaments.  The paper is from My Mind's Eye '12 Days of Christmas'.  The sketch was inspired by Silke Ledlow.

 

My second card uses a digital image by Heather Ellis.  The sketch is by Card Patterns (Sketch 112).  The paper is My Mind's Eye '12 Days of Christmas' and Cosmo Cricket 'Dr. Mr. Claus'.  I put Liquid Applique on the hat.

Have a great day! Amy
