Quick & Easy Christmas

Even though I haven't been posting too often lately, I have been creating!  I have a new job, and have quite a few new coworkers who have been very helpful and encouraging to me - so I wanted to make a stack of Christmas cards to give out this year.  I had some old CTMH Evensong papers in my craft room (anyone remember these??), and I used Verve's Poinsettia Christmas and Merry & Bright for the sentiment.  I got 15 of the floral cards done, and 4 of the checked background cards made - so I'm feeling pretty productive right now!

Patterned papers are Evensong; Cardstock is Colonial White, Garnet & New England Ivy - all Close To My Heart; Stamp sets are Poinsettia Christmas & Merry and Bright by Verve; Spellbinders die; La La Land Crafts Poinsettia die; Copic Markers; Inks are Versafine Onyx Black & Tuxedo Black by Memento.

Mojo Monday & Merry Monday

I've combined the Mojo Monday sketch challenge with this week's Merry Monday challenge which is to use stitching & buttons on your card, for a bit of a country feel.  Well stitching on cards is what I do best :o) so I pulled out the Christmas Poinsettia stamp set from Verve, and used a small green button for it's center:

Patterned papers are Handmade Holidays, by Simple Stories; Cardstock is Cocoa & Colonial White, CTMH; Inks are Barn Red and Cocoa, CTMH; Stamp sets are Poinsettia Christmas, and Glad Tidings, by Verve;
