Blue Christmas

If you were like me, I wasn't excited about the Snow Is Glistening stamp set, but I waited until the last minute to order it and I love it. As I've said before, the sentiments alone are so beautiful. Then there is this tree! And those snowflakes cut with the coordinating dies. Sadly this set was only available for one month. 

Here I used the larges snowflake die and Silver Foil paper. It makes the entire card! Some of the cuts stayed in place, so I just let them be, naturally. I think it looks nice either way.

More of the cuts stayed in place here and I used a different idea for the sentiment banner and embellishments.

I hope you enjoyed looking today. You can adapt almost any stamp sets and use my layouts or others to be creative and wow your recipient with your hand made cards.

Jesus Sampler for Christmas Time

Christmas is about the birth of Jesus, so Creating for Christ's Ronda and Julie came up with this sampler and instructions for creating this beautiful framed piece.

You can join them on Facebook (Creating for Christ) and download free instructions to make one of your own. Each month they develop a kit for some kind of project, but post the instructions for free! You can't beat that. You just have to ask to be added to the group.

Thank you for stopping by today. Please come back as I will be posting some Christmas card ideas in the next few days.
