Christmas Cards - Part 2

Our card saga continues....
If you missed it, here's part 1

We really loved the colors of this next one:

We went with a very similar idea.  To make the embossed paper pop a little more we inked it a little with white chalk ink - it was the perfect touch!  I added sticker letters and Amy stamped hers!

Here's an example of how we ended up with VERY different cards when starting with the same items.

I used the back side of the paper, and Amy used the front.  I then cut an oval the same size as the inside of the frame and placed it overtop to shield the inside from the glimmer mist (Coffee Shop) that I sprayed over top of the curly bits.  Lastly I added the nameplate thingy that I think I picked up at the dollar store.

Amy stamped her, added brads, and a sticker to her card.

**We interrupt our regularly scheduled card making for some silliness**

I really liked this one, and they ended up pretty similar.

These were cards that we made out of stuff that was kinda leftover.
