MY FIVE FAVOURITE CHRISTMAS CARDS

Hi Everyone

Happy Christmas Eve!!

Woo hoo!!!  My favourite day of Christmas!!

Today I am playing along with my lovely blog buddy Debby and sharing my favourite five Christmas cards from 2012.


Not in any particular order and all chosen for different reasons

This one I chose because I just love the snowflake edge border 
and that cute image and sentiment .. .. well actually I loved everything I used .. .. 
including my sewing machine.

This is a recent make that I was pleased with .. .. just love that cute image (which was a freebie) 
and the Sketch Saturday layout I was able to utilise.

This card started off a new craze for me .. .. over printing my Pink Petticoat papers!!
Expect to see more of this in 2013 as I am now addicted LOL!!

For no other reason than I love it and enjoyed water colouring the image!

This one used my very first Memory Box die .. .. something else I have fallen in love with!!


So there we go .. .. my favourite five Christmas cards from 2012 .. . but I could have added another 25 at least!!!  

It just remains for me to to wish everyone happiness over the Christmas holiday .. .. and if you cannot be with your loved ones then I hope you at least get to speak with them .. .. or can take comfort in memories of happy times when you were together..  

Take care everyone and I will be back tomorrow with the launch of my little Christmas quiz.  Time now to become best buddies with Mr Dyson and Mr Sheen!!

Enjoy Christmas Eve everyone!!

Love

    Hi Jules, I don't know how you could whittle your pick down to only five ... all your cards are gorgeous. If I was forced to choose just one though, it would be the one you made for your aunt and uncle ... I just love everything about it :) Merry Christmas, Elizabeth xx

    Enjoyed that look thru your faves...I really enjoyed klooking cuz I must have missed a couple of posts!

    That freebie reindeer is just so sweet. Little Miss C and Mr P would love it...Off to search for the post and find out where you got it.

    Your overlaid digital papers are such a great idea. @013 will see me using some digital for the first time. I am worried about my printer as it is inkjet and can smear if the ink gets wet...I am hoping to get a laserjet at the post Christmas sales.

    Merry Christmas and looking forward to the quiz...I am a bit hopeless at memory things so I know I won't be a winner(teehee) but I know it will be fun .

    Could not have picked a fav out of these if I HAD to! All were lovely, & I had great fun searching for the hearts. Good choices, but all your cards are wonderful. TFS & I'm so happy I found the playground. Such a great group of crafters. Hugs
