Hmmm...I'm not sure that I have a favorite. Do you?
They were all colored with Copic markers.
The first card uses very primary colors. (PP by Sunborn)
In the second card, the green is muted, as if it were aged. (PP by K and Co and the rub-on border is by American Crafts))
The third card is bright with a yellow hue to it. (PP from stash. Green from Michael's. Rick Rack from my stash)
Thanks for looking.

December Calendar Layout with Us by the parent's tree
I post a calendar layout every Wednesday. They are from all different years but I post the same month that we are in. Come back to see what January looks like
This layout is from my brother's 2019 calendar.
The background paper is by Scenic Route. The cardstock in the center has been inked. The center embellishment/border is something I cut out of a patterned paper by MME. Flowers are by Prima and Oriental Trading Co. The brad is by Making Memories. I can't think of who made the little title but as I go through my things I will find out and add it to the post. Thanks for looking.

Upcycled Photo Frame Christmas cards
I decided to upcycle the photo frames that people send out with their kid's pictures. The frames aren't used anymore because people can go online and plug their pictures into the different layouts and TADA!! their photo Christmas card is finished. They even get envelopes.
Some online services; Shutterfly, Walmart, Walgreens-I've heard that their quality is better than you would expect.
The trio of trees stamp is by Denami Designs Circa 1998. It was from the lady that went into the nursing home and I received all of her Christmas stamps and stuff. Well, she heat-embossed the tree in gold on vellum and added some glitter to it. I colored the green on the back of the vellum with green Copic Markers. To give the trees a little color.
Thanks for looking.

'Tis The Season Banner card
The background is a Stampin Up stamping wheel the same color as cardstock. The sentiment is a Cricut cut and inked. The banner is a punch from Stampin Up that I was able to match with a Hero Arts pennant stamp set. The trees were a Cricut cut. I sewed the top of the banner with my Husqvarna sewing machine.
Thanks for looking.

Christmas cards that I wasn’t able to post in Dec 2020
I really like these two cards but I wasn’t able to get a very good picture of them. The wording seasons greetings is a large probably would be best for a slimline card and so I had to get creative on how to make it work for my 4x5.5 size cards.
