I've been slacking in my posts recently. I have been really busy making cards, but haven't taken pictures. I took this photo with my smartphone, so please forgive the quality.
This was my main Christmas card that I sent out. I got about 25 of them made at a crop that I did at the Arts and Crafts House in Brantford. I had an amazing time, Lesley Langdon is an amazing person and the food they provided us with was incredible!! I can't wait to go back. I ran out of the red cardstock though, so ended up making about another 15 of a different design that day. In the past week, I have done about another 30 cards! I only have about 50 on my mailing list, but by the time you do all the teachers, etc at the kids school, plus co-workers, it really adds up.
I used a Unity Itty Bitty as my focal image on this card. I misted the patterned paper (Echo Park Happy Holidays) with Studio Calico white mist to tone down the colours a bit and finished with a bakers twine bow and a little rhinestone.
Hope you are somewhat close to being ready for Christmas - I feel like I could use another week.
Have a wonderful Christmas everyone!
Michele
