The Beginning of the Christmas Cards

I have been very busy the last couple of weeks making Christmas cards.  And this year I am very pleased how they came out.  So, between now and Christmas I have decided I will share them with you a couple at a time (instead of well into the new year 😉 ) Here are the first couple…

 

Day 29- Washi Tape Cards

I had never heard of washi tape cards before I came across these.  They were fun to make, and I like the way they look when they are done.  I may keep this one on my list of ‘go to cards’ to make… 🙂

 

Day 28- Clean and Simple Birthday Cards

Here are a few clean and simple birthday cards I made earlier in the year.  I gave one to my mother in law, and sent a couple more to OWH.  It was a card lift from a video….

 

Day 27- Parrot Birthday Cards

 

For my step mother-in-laws birthday this year, I made her a parrot birthday card.  She loves birds.  I used a sketch from OWH, and made one for them as well.  I used a free printable found on the internet.

 

Day 26- Male Birthday Card

Here is a picture of the birthday card I made for hubby this year…  I think it looks nicely masculine, but still not being all shades of neutrals…

 

Day 24- Xylophone Card

Here is a fun kid friendly card.  It is a design and tutorial from Operation Write Home.  I made one for my niece for her birthday, and a couple for OWH.  Easy, quick, and fun make.  I was worried my niece wouldn’t know what it was (she is 4, and I thought it was a bit ‘old fashioned), but she recognized it right away. 🙂

 

Day 22- Thank You Cards

Here is a card I cased from OWH.  It is one of my favorite designs.  This is a picture of a couple of cards I sent to people who participated in the MS Walk this year.
