Picking up...

...where I left off last year. I have quite a few Christmas cards completed, but I really need to get "into gear", so that I can get my cards ready to go postal. To 'kick it up' I am using some images that I stamped last year, and didn't get to on time to send out. Some were already colored, some were not. Both of these images, were already colored. For a quick fix, I grabbed some of my A Muse 4 bar note cards, and made these up.

Stamps: North Pole (Gina K. Designs)
Card Stock: Vintage Blue Note Cards (A Muse), Neenah Solar White
Ink: Adirondack Black, Copic Sketch markers, Clear Spica glitter pen
Accessories: paper piercer, Spring Rain Top Notch Twill Tape (PTI), Snowflake button (WalMart)

Stamps: Holiday House (Lockhart Stamp Company), Holiday Lane (Lizzie Anne Designs)
Card Stock: Kitchen Yellow 4 Bar Note Card (A Muse)
Ink: Adirondack Black, Copic Sketch markers, Clear Spica pen
Accessories: heidi swapp snowflake ghost shape, Bitty Brad (CTMH), A Muse sheer ribbon
Stamps

I hope you've enjoyed todays' "quickie card" samplings! Thanks for visiting!!

Isn't it wonderful when part of your card is already completed. Your quickie cards are so cute! The patterned note cards work great for this too!
