A Couple Of Christmas Quickies


It's no secret that I'm more disorganised than usual this year so when I find a quick design I make cards in multiples.
 
 
The image is a Nitwits from a magazine giveaway a while back. I discovered a quick way to cut out the stamped layers meaning that you only cut out the three edges  and by starting at the bottom section of the tree and working my way up  each time you cover up the rough cut edge with the next section! Ok, you probably know that but for me it was a revelation and I was a bit excited by it.
 
 
I even used my green ink pad and green twine for the first time.
 

I'm using these cards for the following challenges:-
CIP, Merry Christmas,
DVC47, Christmas,
GL, Christmas,
JS, Christmas,
QC26, Christmas,
TPP126, CAS.
 
Just realised I need to make 2 more cards! oops, looks like am early start for me then.
Thanks for stopping by,
