X-mas Cards.....mmmm



Every year (oops, except for last year...because I was there) I make cards for my family and friends in Chile. Last year I bought a set of stamps from Stampin' Up with greetings in Spanish and after several days of difficult brainstorming (actually no activity at all up there....hahaha) I came up with this card. After deciding what to do, I realized that the blank cards I have purchase were 5"x 7" instead of the regular cards we all use most of the time so I just adjusted the measurements of my pieces. Since I couldn't find a christmas paper that I like, I stamped on the green using Versamark, stamped tiny motif on off white stripe with green and ink edges with brown, cut with decorative scissors the another piece, piece of left over stripe from like 2 years ago, and the wreaths were done using the Cricut Expression and did tiny bows and glue some red beads.
