Hello friends! Is everyone ready for Christmas? Right? LOL! I have finished sending out my Christmas cards and Christmas checks. I found I had several cards already created from this year and last year combined; so that was a big help. I was worried that I might not have enough home made cards. I only send my home made cards to certain people; because some people just throw them in the trash when the season is over. I keep every card that is hand made that I receive each year; but I know not everyone feels that way about them as I do.
I created this Christmas card specifically for my friend Lori. I saw this die when I was looking for dies I hadn't used yet and thought of her. I fell in love with this die when I first saw it; but I don't think I have ever used it. Sad when we buy things and don't remember we have them the next year at Christmas. Oh well, I am working on trying to remember to look each year before I start my cards.
I also fell in love with this shiny cardstock from Crafters Companion Winter Wonderland Collection. I thought it went perfectly with this gorgeous reindeer die. The paper is part of the Winter Wonderland paper pack; sold separately from the glitter and mirror cardstock.
