Peace and Joy

Today features 2 different cards. The first one I've wanted to make ever since I saw this stylized tree on the Christmas Solutions cartridge. Its so simple and elegant! I finally got this cartridge last week and have been using it often!

I cut the tree at 5" with gold paper as the shadow. The background paper is from the DCWV Christmas stack 2008, this is one of my favorite styles from this stack. I used one of my border punches to do the cut out on the corners. The greeting is a clear stamp and I cut two scalloped ovals using Gypsy Wanderings.




The next card is also very simple. The red mat was cut using A Child's Year - this cartridge has a wide variety of cards and mats for the cards. The wreath was cut using Christmas solutions. Scalloped ovals cut using Gypsy Wanderings...this digital cartridge has a great selection of shapes! I've been using them often! Greeting is stamped. Gold bow added to finish!

Thanks for stopping by. Hope you enjoyed your visit!

Koala-t hugs,

Cathy
