"Surfin' Santa" - x-st & cuttlebugged. The mount behind him is card that I covered with fabric. The design is from a Xmas x-st book that my dh gave me for an early Christmas prezzie!!
"Waving Santa" - x-stitched & cuttlebugged - the stars are from the Warehouse, they're very glittery in real life.
I loved stitching these snowmen - they're so cheery!
X-stitch penguin - mounted on white card, then on black. The cuttlebug background is the "Snowflake" border.
"Xmas Ornaments" - x-stitched from my new book - thank you DH!! You can't tell from the scan, but the back stitch is all done in metallic threads ...
These cards were all made for my mother for Christmas - I gave her 12 hand-made Xmas cards, all boxed up in 2 gift-wrapped and decorated boxes. This was definitely a good gift for someone that has everything, and didn't really need any more "stuff" ...
These are some of the Christmas cards that I made for Xmas 2008 - the background papers are from free papers that I received in a magazine, and the chipboard images are from my local craft shop. I'm really happy with how these all turned out - and will definitely make a start on this years ones soon, as I have quite a few images left! I'm following a blog called Christmas Cards All Year Round, and I'm hoping that this will inspire me - why don't you check it out??
