In a pear tree

1st day card
Thought I’d do the 12 days of Christmas but as always I procrastinated and it is after Christmas and I haven’t finished them soo… I’ll go up to 5 this year and maybe more in 09.
This was an easy first with a beautiful stamp In a pear tree form Stampin’ up. The partrage is cut out and ther is a simple background paper.
The words are Penny black
Christmas 2008

Merry Christmas.
the stamp is Judikins and the background music is a cuttlebug empossing.
Newborn King

The stamp set is Newwborn KIng from stampin up and I’ve used it before. I like the circle ans scallop background although it cuts off pomegranates whtis are a frame for the Madonna design.. Couldn’t decide on blue or red so i did both. I like blue better, this is one of my Christmas card designs.
happy birthday Caron(belated)

Karens Christmas Birthday card
Its a birthday card for my friend Karen whose birthday is Christmas.
The stamps used were Stampin up happy birthday and Inkainkado snow flake.
its snowing in the Southern California mountains so this is a fitting card for today.
Holly

I just got a cuttlebug holly embossing folder, love it and I had to show off the holly but it takes up a whole a2 card.
The greeting is hero arts,
simple but merry.
christmas snowman

I had a challenge to do a simple card.
welll most of my cards are simple.
this one is cuttlebug background, a Stampin up “Merry Christmas” and a Penny Black snow cuddle snowman
the birds and scarf are chalked..
frog thanks
This is of course a thank you card but it is also a challenge.
The frog is the unfrogetable from Stampin’ up and the thanks is Stampendous.
The frog was cut out with a spellbinder wizard, then embossed and finally glass beads were added to the bottom.
Here is where I got the challenge catsblog.
