Merry Christmas!!!! Holiday cards to warm your heart!

Merry Christmas everyone!  We're spending the day with all the girls home and my Mom and sister visiting.  We love to spend the holiday with family, playing games, eating, going to the movies, eating, crafting occasionally and especially - eating!

Over the next several days, I'll be sharing our December Paper Pumpkin, holiday cards I received and gifts from our Demonstrator Holiday Party.  But, today, I wanted to share a few more of my favorite cards from classes, swaps, etc.  I hope you enjoy.

These 2 cards used the words from the Wonderful Wreath Framelits Dies.  The backgrounds were sponged with Soft Sky ink using the Dots and Stripes Decorative Masks.  A few of the Frosted Sequins add a little more sparkle to the cards.  

This fun card uses the Visions of Santa stamp set and the Santa & Co. DSP.  

Both these gift card holders were made using a piece of the Trim the Tree DSP Stack.  Too cute!

These gift card holders are made with the Gift Card Envelope & Trims Thinlits Dies and the Nordic Noel DSP stack.  A Nordic Designer Button and some Real Red 3/8" Satin Ribbon finish off the front.  

The back of the envelope has a fun closure.

This simple and elegant card uses the twig image and words from the Beauty of the Season stamp set.  The background is stamped in Smokey Slate with the Woodgrain stamp.  

This is the gold version of my Gentle Peace card.  

This is the silver version.  Both are beautiful in their simplicity.
