Christmas Cookie Greetings

Hello, peeps! I am squeaking in this Christmas card for the Jingle Belles sketch in the nick of time, as well as the color challenge from 52 Christmas Card Throwdown:



Those colors remind me of the beautiful papers I got recently from Mintay, so I pulled some of them out and went to work:


All the papers and the image are from the Christmas Blessings pad; I diecut a Basic Beige and Basic White circle for the cookies, which were fussy-cut.


It's hard to see, but there's a wee brown glimmer star on the center of the cookie (but you can see the dab of glue I used, LOL), which coordinates with the stars on each end of the sentiment banner, which is Crumb Cake, stamped in Cinnamon Cider.  It's from the retired Trees for Sale.


To go with the cookie theme, I stamped this heart and sentiment from Nothing Sweeter, also retired:


I love how realistic these papers look!  And now I have another Christmas card for my stash!  Thanks for visiting today!

A few more birthday cards:


The above card is from my Long Island friend Sandy....love the stenciling on it!  The next card is a fun fold from my friend Robyn...what a cool opening on her card!


Finally, my friend Kathy made a cool card with the Notes & Totes die!  Adorable!


Thanks, ladies! Enjoy your day and be blessed

LeAnne, this looks good enough to eat! I sure wish I had purchased that Cinnamon Cider ink before they pulled the plug on it! What a perfect 'gingerbread' color!
