Mass Production - Season of Joy









I know, I know, I don't like to make cards in mass production, but I've run out of time and I have no choice. Besides I changed up the colors and made either 2 or 4 of each. I do like how they turned out and now I'm done. Maybe next year I'll start making Christmas cards before December!

Winter Post Again



Another card using the Winter Post stamp set but I also incorporated Lovely as a Tree set and I think the results are great. More work than the previous cards but that is because the image of the skaters has to be masked off to stamp the trees. I really like how this card turned out.

Supplies Used: Stamps: Winter Post, Lovely as a Tree and Season of Joy; Paper: Naturals White, Bravo Burgundy and Night of Navy; Ink: Palette Noir Black, Night of Navy, Elegant Eggplant and Basic Black; Other: Large Oval Punch, blender pens, SU watercolor crayons, hodgepodge hardware, stickles and liquid applique.

Winter Post


 

I think that this was one of my favorite stamp sets this year. I didn't make very many cards with this set because I'm still trying to get all my cards done and I'm going to need to go into mass production mode. I have made a few cards with this set and I really like the old time feel this set gives. These images look great on the kraft card stock.

Supplies Used: Stamps: Winter Post; Paper: Kraft, Riding Hood Red, Chocolate Chip, DSP Ski Slope; Ink: Palette Noir Black and Craft Whisper White; Other: Blender Pen, SU Watercolor Crayons, white embossing powder, ribbon, dew drops, hodgepodge hardware and sponges.

Winter Wonderland

 
This is another card that was inspired by something I had seen on another blog. If you have a chance you should visit this site. Kelly Lunceford creates some of the most amazing work I've seen. I visit her blog often and it never ceases to amaze me the artistry and creativity she has. I did change the main image, ribbon and a couple of other things but her card was the inspiration.

Supplies Used: Stamps: Winter Wonderland; Paper: Whisper White, Riding Hood Red, Baja Breeze and DSP Ski Slope; Ink: Riding Hood Red and Chocolate Chip; Other: Felt Flurries, Rhinestone Brads, Riding Hood Red Taffeta Ribbon, dimensionals and stickles.

Snowmen



I'm trying to get all my Christmas cards made and I'm finding it difficult. I'm not someone that likes to make the same card for everyone but I may end up doing just that this year. This card was faily easy and simple to put together but not something I want to do a mass production of. Hopefully I'll be able to get the rest of my cards completed by the end of the week.

Supplies Used: Stamps: Great Groupings; Paper: Naturals White, Pale Plum and Perfect Plum; Ink: Palette Noir Black and various SU markers; Other: Cuttlebug Embossing Folder, Ticket Corner Punch, Rhinestone Brads, Ribbon and dimensionals.
