Contempo Christmas....

Here is a card I made recently to send my friend Carol.  I used the ornament stamp from the Contempo Christmas stamp set.  I stamped two in Cherry Cobbler and one in Old Olive. And the nice thing is you can punch them out using the Ornament punch, so no cutting!  I used the Jolly Holiday designer series paper behind them, using two patterns of it.  And the card itself is Cherry Cobbler.

                                       

I used the Very Vanilla 3/8: taffeta ribbon tied around each ornament.  I love those bows!  There is no sentiment on the front of this card.  I think the images says it all!  Happy Holidays!

Thanks for stopping by!  Smiles, Laura

More of Christmas....

The samples I'm sharing today is very easy to make so it's a good one to do if you have to make ALOT of Christmas cards. It uses the new Contempo Christmas stamp set. I used Cherry Cobbler for the base card on this one. The background is our new Jolly Holiday DSP. There are many lovely patterns in this set of paper! I cut the oval using the Big Shot and the Ovals die. Then I stamped Merry Christmas using the Cherry Cobbler ink. The "tree" is inked with Old Olive and then the pot for it is inked with the Cherry Cobbler marker. The ribbon is layered behind the designer paper on one side and left out on the other--the oval will hold it down. I tied it off with 1/4" grosgrain ribbon to add some interest.

Thanks for stopping by today. Smiles, Laura
