Peace on Earth

I thought it would be a good time to finish up some Christmas cards before the real rush begins! I think my favorite holiday product this year has not been a stamp but instead…a paper pack. I keep coming back to this Thomas Kinkade Christmas Series paper pack time and time again. There are SO many images (along with coordinating paper) that  it really makes my holiday cards and projects a breeze. What I really love it that I keep coming up with new ideas and layouts and projects to use them on. For this design, I simply paired them up with my new Spellbinders die and I’m loving the look!

While we’re on the topic of Christmas, I also have a the winner of my  Spreading some Holiday Spirit Giveaway! Thanks so much to everyone who left comments! Your wonderful ideas are a great jumping off place for getting in the Christmas spirit! I’m definitely more in the Christmas mood today as we had a beautiful snowfall last night and my oldest son brought home some poinsettias from the store for me 🙂 I used an on-line random number integer generator to pick #62  as my winner. Congratulations Janine! E-mail me with your address and I’ll get the package in the mail! 🙂

Peaceful Winter

Quick Tip: For a “negative mat” by simply cutting your larger patterned paper with a die that is two sizes larger than your image one.

Wishing you a peaceful Sunday!
