Christmas Cards for the PJ Crop Card Exchange

Hi folks!

Every year around this time, there is a crop at Algonquin College here in Ottawa. I've been attending pretty much since the beginning - it's the one crop I make sure to attend every year.

Something new the last couple of years is that attendees can sign up to take part in a Christmas card exchange. We each make 10 cards and the participants swap with each other - so we all come home with 10 different cards! It's always fun!

These are the cards I made this year. Simple (I rushed to make them the night before) but I think pretty.

card details:

• finished size: 4.25 x 5.5 inches, white card stock base
• paper: CTMH Beary Christmas, cranberry card stock, gold glitter card stock, white card stock
• stamped image: CTMH October Stamp of the Month "Christmas Tunes", details coloured with Shinhan markers
• embellishments: CTMH Gold Glitter Gems

As always, thanks for stopping by!

Sending Tidings of Comfort & Joy

Hi folks,

Just popping in today to share the other card style featured in the Joyful Tidings WYW Cardmaking Kit.

I love this fun colour combo! And, once again, while the kit suggests using the scalloped border Thin Cuts, I used my scallop border punch to replicate the look AND I hand cut the banner as I did not yet have the banner Thin Cuts (I do now!).
