I have been away from my post
visiting family for a few days
so playing catch up.
It is time for the girls in the
Christmas Card Club to show their makes.
Granmargaret has chosen the theme this time
which is use 2 or more pattern papers.
I managed to sort out my digi and christmas card to use
but didn't have time to do anything else.
Fluff gave me a pile of freebie papers
from magazines she had been hoarding for me
so rather than just sort them and put away
I decided to use some of them for the cards here.
The 1st card uses a digi I bought last yr
called 'Snowman Selfie ' by Sassy Cheryl
from Paper Creator
The image comes pre coloured
so I picked out the colours on these
snowball design papers from
Nov/Dec 2015 Making Cards Magazines.
Base card made using orange /blue card stock.
Sentiment is an old card cut down.
Wording strip on front is a Metallic foiled
adhesive peel off ribbon by Kanban.
Martha Stewart punch used for the edging.
This picture makes me smile and is by Mary Jane.
I made a base card from Ivory card stock and
then layered up using 3 different papers
from Dec /Christmas editions 2015
Making Cards Magazines.
I mounted the card front on 3d pads
and found matching bakers twine in my stash.
Repeated inside with the same papers and the sentiment
is an old unused card cut down.
I still had this last old christmas card out on my desk
and it wouldn't be christmas without me making a card using
acetate so here is my 3rd card.
The expression on this penguin
just creases me up.
I trimmed the card down just slightly
to leave the green ribbon border intact
and layered up using 2 more designs papers
from Dec /Christmas editions 2015
Making Cards Magazines.
I used blue cardstock to make the base card.
Front of card is acetate sandwiched into the spine .
Decorated with various silver adhesive stick ons.
Still keeping to my resolution to use both
recycled christmas cards and digis/stamps
or die cuts from my stash that I haven''t used.
Off now to see what you have all been up to
in my absence.

Beautiful Christmas cards you are really getting ahead with your card making this year.
Happy to read that you'd had a break & enjoyed your family! You never disappoint with the recycle work, and it always amazes me, at the wonderfulness with which your creativity across! Each of these is just darling, and I'm delighted to see how you got the different papers incorporated into each of your darling cards. Especially loved #2! You didn't do just one...you got THREE! Good for you..you'll have quite a stash come December. And each one, a winner!!! TFS & Hugs

Such sweet snowmen, then loved the buried sleigh, and see what you mean about the penguin, such fun images, lovely cards xxx made me smile. Happy Easter (nearly put Christmas lol)
That is cool, how you add the acetate. Love the snowman image that did give me a smile. Wonderful cards.
Oh my gosh, that middle card is such a scream. I'm sure people living in the snow belt can relate. All of these are great cards. Good job on getting some of the holiday madness out of the way early.
