Christmas cards with fun school bus tags on varied backgrounds

Another set of cards for my sister with school buses on them.  These are all Christmas cards and were created with the same sketch but with a variety of different papers and card bases.  These are large cards - 5.5" x 8.5" because she has a supply of this size of envelopes.  I colour printed three different images of festively decorated buses and started creating!!  I created them one at a time  - a card base, then a background that was appropriate for the image and then a die cut tag which I embellished with coordinating layers and the images.  There is some embossing, tearing, texture created with my tracing wheel, sanding of white core cardstock, etc.  Each tag has a yellow reinforcement and then a coordinating fiber, ribbon or raffia tied to the tag.  It is so much fun to just create and try different things and just keep putting together elements.  I am suprised to see that they seem to fall into three collections as they were not created that way!!         Therese
