Christmas Card Fun!

My awesome Stampin' Up demonstrator did a cool Stamp-A-Stack this year, and these are three of the cards that we made. I LOVE the Top Note Die from SU! We tried to find several ways to put it to use since we all purchased the machine this year! I think we did a good job!!!

I LOVE snowmen, so this one was a MUST make!!

I love this stamp set I got to use for Christmas Cards this year. This card took some tweaking before I was really pleased with it. I LOVE the "Merry Christmas Dear Friend" punch. I thought it went well with the deer image! I had some red gem stickers that fit perfect in Rudolphs nose! I finally found some red ribbon that seemed to tie it all together!
This was another card we made. I love the multicolored strips! The ornaments are old-fashioned and I love how this turned out!

...and last but not least...

I LOVE the snow cuttlebug embossing folder I got at Hobby Lobby and have put it to GOOD use!!! I layered it with white and blue and I LOVE how it turned out! You can't really see it in the picture. but I used some awesome shimmer paint stuff on the word "sparkle" and the snowmen. (Thanks Angel!!!) Really brought it all together. I found some cute sparkling snowball type things to add on. I am QUITE pleased with this one, too!

I really had fun making Christmas Cards this year. I'm not saying which one I sent out, since I know they have not been all delivered. :-) I gave the boys' teachers a set of Christmas Cards this year in lieu of my regular ornaments I usually give. I couldn't find the material I usually use and I didn't like how they were turning out. I decided to give something they could hopefully use, so I tied 2 each of 5 different designs of cards together and that's what they gave to their teachers.

I can't believe tomorrow is Christmas Eve. I am actually ready for it this year, but I'm still not feeling much in the Christmas Spirit. I'm not sure why. I put the tree up, but just have not had the desire to put the ornaments on it. The kids have made some in school and Sunday School, so I put those on this year, and I've actually put the Christmas Cards I have received so far on it, too. Maybe it's the warm weather, or the lack of Christmas spirit I'm feeling in the house. I don't know.

Randy is reading Luke 2:1-7 at the childrens Christmas Eve Service tomorrow and I am so proud of him! Hopefully something will energize my Christmas Spirit at the service!
