I've missed four months of the last ten on my challenge to make five Christmas cards a month... my bad!! So, October was catch-up month! Here's twenty... :)
Starting with mid-month when Ann Ullery stayed the night after her cruise and we did these. A Rubber Cafe stamp set colored with Prismacolors. Following a technique I learned at the first Junkie Fest, we made a faux fence. The flame and the wax drip have Glossy Accents and stickles are on the berries for dimension.
Since I have so much Christmas patterned paper, I watched a couple Kristie Marcotte videos (the 6"x 6" queen of cardmaking) to see if I could use up paper...
I also caught a Kristina Warner video where she gold embossed the background paper. So, I did that on the red piece. The Noel is from a 12"x 12" pad with extra pieces. Gold glitter paper and bling from my stash...
More like the above...
I used the same layout I used when crafting with my mentor, Barb, at the beginning of October at her home in California. It worked perfect for the extra pieces from another 12"x 12" pad.
I've been cleaning up files on my computer all week and came across a card I made in a Craftsy class back in 2017. I decided to CASE it with Christmas papers. Not bad!
And these two? Just corners of a 12" x 12" pad using a stitched die and Taylored Expressions sentiment strips...
But, the bad part of all these is that with ALL the paper I used, it barely made a dent... ugh! BUT, twenty more Christmas cards for my stash. :)
great job on your cards - I am sure patterned paper multiplies like bunnies
