A couple of last minute Christmas cards
For the Paper Cutz Challenge click HERE
I have made a few last minute Christmas cards, since I hadn't felt well for a couple weeks I got way behind on my Christmas cards (and everything else around the house). So I needed to make something quick and easy, I finished them today and here is what I came up with. Hope you like them:)

A2 size card
Copic markers & SU colored pencils
SU stamp set - Holiday Tag Team
SU black embossing powder

A2 size card
Tuxedo black Memento Ink
SU stamp set- Along the same Lines
A little note about copic markers: Do not use them with black embossing powder, they will smear/melt the embossing powder. I found this out the hard way. If you do want to use embossing powder use clear.

Not a creature was stirring
If you are looking for the Paper Cutz Challenge click HERE
I found the Imagine on Dec. 2 still at the black Friday sale price at WM, I cannot believe how much I am loving it. I never would have bought it if it had not been on sale. For one being because It was so expensive previously and for two it is so large, but I am so glad I found it. I had even walked right past the stack of 5 of them sitting on the shelf the first time, but I had walked back down the isle looking for something else. And there they were, just sitting there. One was even still left last week.
Here is another card I made with it.
A2 size 4.25" x 5.5"
The 2 background papers were printed on the Imagine, the green tree paper is from the Snow Angel Imagine Cartridge pg. #40
The pink layer & birds were printed & cut from Enjoy the Seasons Imagine Cartridge pg. #3 at 3.5"
Crinkle ribbon
Foam tape for layers
Sentiment is from Cardz Tv Stamps "Home for the Holidays"
These high quality, clear photopolymer stamps are made in the USA.
