♥ Christmas thank you cards from Christmas cards ♥

good evening.  i am sorry about not posting sooner, we had our Christmas celebration at my mother in law's house last night and it was fabulous.  we look forward to the time, family and memories made every year.  as promised, here are the cards i created using the fronts of some of the Christmas cards we received this year instead of throwing them away.  some of the cards i used the entire image, it was too cute to cut, and others, i cut away the image or sentiment depending on the idea that popped in my head.  i typed a sentiment on the computer, a repeated "thank you" sentiment in typewriter vintage kind of setting.  each card took me no longer than 3 minutes to create from beginning to end, and each card was re-read, re-loved and re-purposed.


here's the stack of some of the cards i used



on the larger images, like the ones below, i cut them down slightly, adhered my strip of "thank you" sentiment, stitched or stapled and adhered a glittered red heart cut with my Martha Stewart Punch

 





 on the cards below, i cut sentiments or strips of sentiments from the various cards and adhered them to October Afternoon Silent Night line





i'll be back with more Christmas thank you cards created with the OA Silent Night line.

happy, happy creating♥

♥ Christmas wrap made easy ♥


i have been creating away with the December 2013 Scraptastic Scrapbooking Kits Home for the Holidays kit, i LOVE it.  i have create a lot of packaging for all the various gift cards for my college-age child this Christmas.   while they are gift cards, the thought and wrapping behind each one is different and hopefully fun.  so, here goes with some of the packages that all contain a gift card or certificate.

i LOVED cutting pillow boxes and gable boxes using the papers in this kit and my Cameo

this tag has slots to hold the gift card and then i stitched it closed so there's no peeking until it's time to cut it open
