Christmas Card Order

Hey All
 
I did manage a few Christmas Card orders over the festive period but unfortunately I did not take any pictures.  I had a couple of children's ones, baby's first Christmas etc which were my favourites and I am kicking myself for not asking the time to photograph them for the blog. 
 
These photos are courtesy of my sister as I managed to catch her before she wrote & sealed them, she is a star!!
 
All the cards are 8x8 size, due to time I really didn't embellish them as much as I would normally.  Apart from the Boofle one they were all decoupaged using 3D Glue Gel and basically just matt & layered onto linen effect Mirri Card which is a little softer than the shiny stuff, added gems to them all just to give that festive sparkle.  I was actually really happy with them in the end. 
 
They looked & felt like good quality cards with matching inserts using personalised poetry or religious quotes.
 


This was the only card that wasn't decoupaged.  This was a Boofle Christmas stamp set and Christmas paper.  I used Promarkers to colour and the wee Robin is on a spring so bobbed about, definitely one of my faves, loved how it turned out!
 

 


My first actual crafty project for the year will be my January swaps for the group and then I think I will actually open my Spectrum Noirs, yip that's right!!! Had them three months now and they are still in the box they came in, nightmare!!
 
Enjoy the rest of your night peeps,
 
*hugs*
