Still making Christmas cards...and a few note cards for a gift

These are almost the last Christmas cards I will do before I move on. I still have to make my Christmas thank you cards, although since we are all cutting back so much, I probably won't need very many of those. I bought this reindeer stencil over the summer from a stampin up rep. in Virginia. I was looking forward to using it this Christmas. I'm sure I will use it again and again. I really like it. This set was quick and easy.

Supplies: paper/ DCWV Christmas notecards and The Paper Company, ribbon/JoAnn's Christmas ribbon, PK Glitz glitter glitz, dreamweaver stencils embossing paste in metallic gold and pearlescent, Stampin Up Reindeer stencil

These cards were made for a friends birthday that is coming up. I missed a lot of birthdays this year, but this friend always looks out for me. Her birthday is ingrained in my brain so I don't forget. :) She is absolutely the easiest person to do anything for. She is appreciative of anything you do, and lucky for me she loves blank notecards! I picked these monogram notecards up in Marshalls. I look for nice designs sometimes that will look even nicer once they are embellished. I stamped the designs on them, traced them out in glitter pen and added some bling. I think they turned out pretty cute. This is just a sampling because I am doing a set of 12 (each card will be different). I am only posting these 4. I tried to match the image color ink to the color of the monogram that was already debossed on the card.
