Beat the Christmas Rush

How's everyone getting on with their Christmas cards?  Are you managing to make a few each month?

I'm sticking with quick and easy (but oh it so goes against the grain), one using a couple of dies and the other using buttons for baubles.




If I were to make the cards above again I would probably cut another row, colour the houses in and attached with sticky fixers to give some dimension.  


I've done two of these so a total of 7 this month:)  While I was away on the BBs retreat, a couple of the girls helped me make this pile

of Christmas cards from a kit I bought off QVC about a hundred years ago and never made because they just weren't me.  I'm going to give them to a charity to sell. 


My favourite from our entries for February are these from Lindsay.

Super cards, Susi. I love the buttons (of course) but the die cut row of houses is definitely my favourite.
