Another set of Christmas cards for my stash using the same glittery pine cone gift wrap as I used for my last set. These ones feature a large greeting I downloaded from Mom Junction which I sized, laser printed onto white cardstock and added a black line all the way around to give it some depth. I watercoloured the greeting and holly and then added some clear glitter in the stars and dots around the top, on the berries and all the way around the edges. I added a strip of double sided tape on the right hand side and added short lengths of coordinating ribbon then flagging their ends. I mounted the trimmed backgrounds - glittery pine cone gift wrap which came wrapped around one of our gifts this past season - to red card fronts and then mounted the greetings to them using 3D foam tape. As you can see I made a few angled a bit and two square and even. I did these cards more assembly line style. I did each step for all of them one at a time. Trimmed all the images, added a black line to all of them, watercoloured them and then added ribbon to all of the greetings. I glued all the backgrounds to the front and then mounted all the greetings to them. It was easier to make them all the same when using this method of assembly. Happy with these and they are headed for the bucket when they are finished being pressed. Therese
