Hey there! I always love it when my stampin' friends send me Christmas cards they have made, and I have three to share with you today!
First, a cute creation by my friend Jan Lacey. Jan has been one of my dearest friends since waaaay back in our Freshmen year of High School! I won't tell you how many years ago that has been, but it "might" be close to 41! shhh! Does that mean we might be starting to turn in to "old ladies"? When we get together, no matter how long it's been, it feels like just yesterday since we talked and the years fall away! Jan used a few retired items on her card, but the Cookie Cutter Christmas and the Cookie Builder Punch are still available in the Annual Catalog:
The Cookie Cutter Christmas sentiment Jan stamped with Real Red ink expresses my sentiments exactly!
Next, I look forward to receiving Crystal Lopez' card every year, as she never disappoints with her extra-special embellishments and theme!
Crystal enjoys using products from multiple stamp companies and is a design team member for some, so she is an expert at mixing and matching from many sources! Her technique to sponge white ink over the embossed snowflakes background can be utilized with Stampin' Up! textured impressions embossing folders too!
Finally, LeeAnn Byrne created an easily reproducible card with the Night in Bethlehem stamp set and the Tufted Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. She used Night of Navy, Balmy Blue, and Whisper White for a simply elegant look.
After punching the Holy Family with a 1 1/2" Circle Punch, she layered it onto a Night of Navy circle cut with a Stitched Shapes Framelit.
LeeAnn and Jan both used the gatefold technique for their cards. I love how it frames the inside sentiment when it is opened!
