Christmas Cards

  Here is one of three Christmas cards I've been working on...you can't see them well but some of the accents are Opaques for the snow.  The card is 4.75 X 3 and is so cute.  I've always loved Snowmen so had to make a card.
  Hoping one or more will be a class so I'll be showing these at the Pumpkin Festival thanks to Pam Thor who arranged everything.
  This next card reminds me of Christmas past.  Kind of nostalgic.  I colored him with our watercolor pencils and a blending pen.  I am working on a two page layout to go with this guy and am using page 108 in our new Autumn/Winter Idea Book as my inspiration: the one with Nona Davenport's Children.  I am lacking a few things to finish it though....the October "Share the Magic" SOM and the Color Ready Alphabets Bold...I have the Color Ready Oxford Caps.  Figures. Lol.
  This last guy I made using Emboss Resist and thought he'd turn out a little better.  I used the music note paper from our paper pack "Mistletoe", but the Santa is not "Chunky" enough and instead of Cocoa ink, I should've used Chocolate ink.  I used "Nestabilities" for the Ovals.
  Well, I guess that's all for now,
Piece,
Carolyn
