A winter wonderland dream

So, I apologize to you my fellow bloggers, I have been neglecting you this week. It's been crazy with people being sick (myself included), working on getting all my Christmas gifts made and Christmas cards sent out and for a few, finished. Also, work has been SUPER hectic for the weeks leading up to the holidays, since we have a lot of special stuff happening that I have to work on. *sigh* Luckily, I only have a few homemade Christmas gifts left to make and only a few (like I think 5 only) Christmas cards left to make as well. Yay! All of which I hope to finish tomorrow (Friday) and hopefully this weekend. *phew* I want to spend my Christmas week relaxing and making cookies! :)
Anyways, here are those Christmas cards I made last week that I took FOREVER in posting up here. Sorry all! I apologize for the week-long delay.
Without further ado, here are some more Christmas cards. (man, you'll be so happy when Christmas is over, so you don't have to see any more Holiday cards on here. lol)
This first one is one of my favs. So much a favorite of mine, I made a few more extra (I know, *gasp* I made duplicates!?) But I loved how it turned out, I couldn't just give it to one person! Anyways, I love how simple it turned out, but yet so elegant with the embossing. :)

 

This next card I did as another ornament card. I just love ornament Christmas cards. So cute! This one was from a $1 wood-mounted stamp I got on sale at Micheal's a while back. I also used my brand new Copic markers I got for Christmas from my Mom to color them. Thanks Mom!

 
 And then there is my "snowflake collection" cards. I just love this snowflake punch by Fiscars. Just the right size to use as the centerpiece or embellishment to a card!



And here is some more cards I made with that lovely "Eskimo Kisses" Chipboard.


 

These last few are some others to show you. The first one was done mostly as a modern take on a sketch I found and using the main designer paper as the focus. The last two are all about the popup stickers I used to make the cards sparkle. :)

 
 

 Hope everyone is having a great holiday or weeks leading up to the holiday. I'm off to surf the web before I have to go to bed. I'm pooped!
I hear we're supposed to get some snow here on Saturday. I'm just hoping it holds off till Christmas. White Christmas' are so fun!
Hugs all and leave me some comment love on some of your favs or what you're doing for the holidays. Hugs all!
