Holiday Cards...

Thursday, January 5, 2012

Holiday Cards are always the hardest cards to make because I seem to always be under pressure making them... the old story of leaving them until the last minute and promising myself every year that I'm going to start early when I never do!

So this year I devised a plan to eliminate making a whole pile of different cards and instead I'd have a few basic designs and recreate each one using different papers and colours. Well what can I say, it worked a treat and I had a nice little production line going. However, note to self... next year do not use the little retro flower punch when trying to save time!

    Those little flowers may have been a wee bit tedious to stick on your gorgeous card but so worth the effort for the impact! Beautiful!
    Thank you for sharing! :)
