Christmas cards!

So, as part of the season, everyone either buys or makes Christmas cards to send to family and loved ones.  Unfortunately, I was not one of them this year.  Don't ask why... but it just didn't happen.  However, I did make some cards to put gift cards in and to prep for next years Christmas card giveaways!

This year, I found some great ideas online and thought I would share some of the ones that I tried using my trusty Cricut!


This card has flocking instead of glitter.  It gives a nice fuzzy effect.

These cards I made using the card feature on my Winter Woodland cartridge.  If you have that cartridge it has a lot of great cards that you can easily make.  And I then added the glitter and flocking with packing tape on the reverse side of the cards!


This tag I created a Archiver's during one of their make and take weekends (which are tons of fun by the way!).  You can find the directions on how to make the tag here.  I added green and pearl gel pens on the candy's instead of red.  I thought it added a nice touch!
This is also another card I created using my Cricut Birthday Bash cartridge.  This cartridge is great because it has pre-holed banner triangles and several cards that you can make including some really cute birthday die-cuts!
