Christmas Cards #1

I started making my Christmas cards for this year. I wanted to do things differently this year and make all different styles. So I search youtube for new ideas and here is what I came up with.
This one is suppose to look like a door with a wreath on it. It was very simple to make. First I make a thin circle by making a circle and cutting the inside out. Then I applied leaves punched from the EK punch "Rock Fern". Placed several layers around the circle. I then applied Tulips Beads in a Bottle "Pearl Red" to make the berries and "Onyx" to make the door knob. To make the door panels I just cut 4 rectangles the popped them out with dimensionals. Add a bow and I was done.

This card was made using the Cricut and the "Create-a-Critter" cartridge. I welded two bags using the Gypsy. Then cut out 2, 1 white and 1 print. I then cut only the top of the bags in a different color. I did this by placing the image off the mat that made it cut only the top out. I used real tissue paper on the top of the bag by placing it between the two layers. Add ribbon, a bow along with a sticker and I was done.

I will be updating with more cards as I get them made,
Margaret
