Christmas Tree by Deep Red Stamps

The patterned paper is a recycled card,
The patterned paper is by Papertrey ink and by Me and My Big Ideas

It needs a sentiment.
You can see the recycled card I used in the second photo. It has nothing to do with Christmas but you wouldn’t know that until you saw the two side by side. Idk. The colors make it work.

Dry embossing floral card

I made this any occasion card thinking it would be an anniversary card. It's close to the end of the year and I have to gather the cards for next year on my husband's side of the family. I have a deal with my BIL that I will make and give him the cards for the year with the understanding that he will send them out on time. A ridiculous thing to admit but I can't seem to send cards to family and friends before the birthday or anniversary. If I am "on time" it's not really, it's more like super early so that it's not late.
Anyway, the background is dry embossed with an Anna Griffin folder where the center is open. I filled it with two eBay dies with  Jolee's flower sticker on top. Not much to it but it is pretty.

Deep Red Stamps Christmas Present cards

I have two cards today. I really like the way they turned out.
The patterned paper is by Carta Bella Bundled Up by Alisha Gordon
Dry embossing folder by Cuttlebug

I colored the stamp with distress markers and sprayed with water before stamping.
Fun thing-I covered the manufacturer's hole at the top of the 6x6 paper pad with a bow.



The second present card is on Carta Bella patterned paper and a Project Life card
The funny thing about this card is the circle sentiment is covering a blemish on the paper.
The sentiment on the circle is a rub-on by American Crafts. I was nervous adding the rub-on to the circle as it was a close fit.
