Chrissy Cards

These are the 35 cards are made for Corey and Sim to write in for MLT and office ppl. I made 7 each of 5 designs. Really quick and easy; as I only had about 4 days to do them in. I cut and scored all the cards from white to speed things up. Having a white base was a bit limiting, but turned out ok. I did a lot of corner rounding and stamping directly onto the white card. Quick and effective. Also chopped around stamped images and foam mounted them for a bit of interest.

The first design is pretty much a card lift from a magazine, with a little bit of variety, using my own stamps. I love lifting when I am in a hurry or a slump. Original card was by Julia Stainton, published in Paper Crafts magazine special edition: Holiday Cards

The manger card was inspired by a card by Dianna Halevy, in the same magazine. She chopped around the little stamped mary and joseph and mounted them with foam, which I thought was completely cute. Her card is fabulous and far superior to mine; mine was a quickie and far less imaginative version!
