In Process...

I am currently working on Christmas cards - as well as gift tags. I always think I will start during the summer, but that has never happened! Since I am a bit pressed for time, I thought I would use a die cut image to save steps and time. I use the Sizzix/Tim Holtz reindeer die to cut out the deer. The were then embossed and inked with Distress Inks. The other images were stamped in Distress Inks and Brilliance Galaxy Gold. I still have several more steps, but they are moving along! When you make your cards, are you a stamping purist, or do you use die cuts, stickers, etc?

Love these cards, Connie. I actually DID keep my resolution to make cards all year so I have a pretty good stash to use. Still might have to make a few (DH, etc) but it feels so good to have some of them finished. Great idea. Embossing the die cut image.
