Christmas Cards with Tim Holtz Dies

This year I started my Christmas cards in January.  Yep, hardly got through making the ones for 2010 and started right back up with 2011.  Why?  Not just to beat the rush.  I love scrap booking, but sometimes I just don't have the time or inclination to do a whole page.  Cards are quick, easy and Christmas cards let me play with glitter and bling in particular, so why not?  Even with that said, I am only about half way through making all the cards I'll need, so the pace is going to have to pick up significantly.

Here are a couple of cards I made using Tim Holtz's ornament die.  I love how one is retro, clean and colourful and the other a little more muted.  This die can go whichever way you'd like it to, never mind that you can even make an actual ornament with it too.  Perhaps Tim should do the 12 Ornaments of Christmas one year.


Also used, Kaiser craft stamp, Impression Obsession CAC Pine boughs, Snow Writer, and Melissa Frances Glitter Glass.
