Quick xmas cards - 91 days till Christmas!

Apparently there are only 91 days left till Christmas!  Eek!  I wanted to make up a set of cards for a friend and wanted to make sure they were thin enough to mail and a standard size.  I wanted the gift set to be about 20 cards, but certainly didn't have 20 our more hours to spend, LOL!  So I looked through my stuff and came up with a bunch of ideas for quick cards, and here are 5 of them, I'll show you the others another day, just to spread it out.








They are all featuring the latest stamps and dies from Heartfelt Creations.  The backgrounds were either dry embossed or DP from my stash, most of which is retired SU.  Colouring is with Copics and liberal amounts of glittery Stickles and liquid pearls to give glitz.

I hope you are well on your way to being prepared for the holidays, let the countdown continue!

    Fantastic cards. I'm so loving that angel image.
    I love CAS, mailable Christmas cards and these are perfect for that.

    Please don't remind me about Christmas. I've only gotten 2 gifts done and only a huge family left...

    Wow, these are gorgeous! All of them are very nice and elegant looking. I think the top one is my favorite on though. Simply beautiful. I think I will take you 91 day warning to heart and get working on my own cards!
