Xmas Goodies Cards

Hello everyone

This morning I have made three quick little Christmas cards from the cd "Xmas Goodies" from Fee J Designs.  I bought this cd on impulse last year but had all my Christmas cards sorted by then so didn't actually use it.  So this morning I had a look through it and decided to make three quick cards.  These cards appear on the cd as 8x8 card fronts, but I have resized them in Craft Artist to aprox 5x5 instead.  They still look the same!

Here is the first one:

 

I printed direct onto card and also printed off the snowman and the border separately, cut them out, added a bit of starlight pen and crystal glamour dus and then added them to the card using foam pads under the head of the snowman and Crafters Companion tape pen to the border and base of the snowman.  I designed and printed the insert using Craft Artist.

Second card:

Again I printed direct to card and also printed off the square topper and the border separately.  The topper got the Crafters Companion spray and sparkle treatment and I outlined the border using starlight pens, though I don't think this shows on the photo.  I stuck the topper down using foam pads and Crafters Companion tape pen for the border.  I designed and printed the matching insert using Craft Artist.

Third card:

Again printed this direct onto card with the topper, tag and boder separately.  The topped was given the Crafters Companion spray and sparkle treatment and I punched a hole in the top of the tag and added a fine piece of blue ribbon.  I used foam pads to add the topper and a mixture of foam pads and Crafters Companion tape pen for the border so that I could simply slot the tag into it.  Again, I designed and printed the insert using Craft Artist.

And here are the first ten of the cards I made yesterda morning:

You may already have seen my post when I first designed this card on Craft Artist and this is what it looks like printed out.  If time allows I may add a little glitter to them before putting them into the post.

And the second ten made yesterday morning - five of each design:

Both of these were also designed using Craft Artist and printed direct to card,

So I have had quite a productive weekend, which is just as well because I think that tomorrow I may be in the kitchen for quite some time.  Hubby has already made the Christmas Puddings (yep, puddings in the plural - six of them to be exact) so it is now my turn to make the Christmas cake (that's what I call a division of labour!)

Thank you for dropping in.
