More Christmas Cards





I had a fairly productive weekend. Got errands run...and quite a few Christmas cards knocked out!! You should see my living room..it is a MESS!! I brought my stampin stuff upstairs to sit in front of the TV while creating...I seem to get more done that way!

So, about the cards...I was going for simple this year and I think I achieved that ;).
The last card is one of my faves. It is made with A Muse cardstock, SU trees, one penguin from a Denami Design penguin group (5 cuties in a row), the igloo is from Memory Box and the sentiment is from A Muse. My fave part is that I have learned how to do the "shadowing" thing underneath images so they don't look like they are floating on the paper. I love how this effect looks...makes it look so realistic. The card was done simply with black VersaMagik ink, but the lil penguin has a touch of red stickles on his bow tie and hat and some liquid applique on his hat. He looks adorable!!

These are all wonderful. Great job Keri, I think it was worth having a messy living room, as long as you do clean it up sometime before Christmas. :)
