Well another month closer to Christmas. It's time to start thinking about gift ideas. I am the first stop on the hop this month and as usual we will be showing one card using a die cut machine and the other using a stamp and a colouring medium.
For my first card I used my Cricut E2, Gypsy and the Christmas cartridge which was a free add on to the Gypsy. I have wanted to use this cut for awhile. The background paper is printed from the Vintage Papers cartridge and the Imagine. I add some Dew Drops and a silver glittery pipe cleaner. Isn't that perfect for tinsel.
My second card is a digi from KL Dezigns. I added the stockings cut from the Simply Charmed cartridge to the fireplace and used a brad to attach them. The background paper is from the Recollections Frosty Cabin stack. I thought it looked like wallpaper. I added a bit of Gelly Roll glitter pen to the fire.
