I've found another two Christmas cards which I didn't get round to blogging in the rather stressful period before Christmas.
I found this gorgeous ribbon in Boyes, and there was enough for all of us, so I decided a simple card would make the ribbon the star of the show. It involved a bit of fiddly lining up, but basically an easy peasy card. It's a very old stamp, sorry I don't have the name. We embossed it and added gems.
Another quick make. We masked off the panel and sponged in colour, making sure we did a background panel to match at the same time. Then it was just a quick bit of stamping and embossing. Another old favourite stamp, by Inkadinkadoo.
I hope to be back soon with what we've been up to since Christmas.
happy crafting

Ooh, both so pretty I couldn't choose a fave. As you say lovely ribbon and design on the first and I love the colours and sentiment of the second ... I have that Inkadinkado image in my own collection and should really use it more often too

Both cards simple at first glance but very effective, enjoying seeing Christmas cards as I have yet to start this years, seem to have had lots of normal cards to make and now been commissioned to create a 20 page scrapbook album, christmas is definitely on the back burner so saving these ideas for later. xxx
