Holiday Treasures Santa Friend

This card I did 2 ways by reversing the Holiday Treasure DSP patterns. I think I prefer the card that has mostly Olive as the small square background. It doesn't take the focus of the Santa stamp from the Deer Friends hostess set. I CASED this sketch from an excellent card I found in the SCS Gallery by Jodie. Thanks for sharing Jodie!

Oldie but a Goodie!

I had a chance this weekend to work on Christmas cards with a friend from MOMS Club. We had a great time and I did get some cards whipped out.

This is one of my favorite snowmen from the Retired Tags and More set. So simple and cute and made an easy card with Stampin' Ups Holiday Treasure DSP.

Holiday Treasures Lovely as a Tree

AAAHHHH! I am running out of time and still short on Christmas cards!!! This card is for this weeks sketch challenge 205 on Splitcoast Stampers. I stamped the tree with Chocolate Chip ink and then added color using a Qtip Dauber and Old Olive Classic Ink Pad. Add the tab punch and some Linen Thread and I have a quick easy card!
