I've been making Christmas cards....

Nov 27, 2012 15:48


As some of you already know, I decided to make my Christmas cards this year - nothing too elaborate, just die-cut shapes stuck on cards with a few embellishments, but I'm quite pleased with the results.

Here's what I've made so far....

Thank you! They are a lot of fun to make, practically addictive - I keep buying new bits and pieces so I can make even more! The penguin cards are my favourites, they're just so cute!

Oh wow! These are fantastic. The penguins are adorable, but I think the baubles and the flowering trees are my favorites. If mailing things to the States isn't too much of a pain, I'll pm you my addy.

You're going to make a lot of people happy with these. :)

Thank you! I'm having fun making them =)

No problem, PM away - I'm already sending several to the States and Canada!

Let me know whether you'd prefer a flowering tree or a bauble, and what colours you like. I'm just making another batch of bauble cards.

Thank you! I'm really enjoying being creative in a different way. I make cross stitched cards for family and friends sometimes, but I've never done cards like these before. The bits and pieces you can get to decorate cards these days are amaxing, I get a bit spoiled for choice!

Thank you =D

I've always loved making things, right from when I was little - they weren't very good back then, but I still enjoyed it. I think my skills have improved over the years, but it's still as much fun as ever just to make something, however simple or elaborate, and see the finished result. I plan to keep making things until my hands fall off, because it would take that to stop me, lol!

Glad you like them, I'm quite pleased with them myself!

(Now I think I'm going to bed - I'm yawning so much I can barely see what I'm doing!)
