Batch 2 of 5 Crimbo Cards

Hello Folks,

I thought I would pop in early to upload this batch that I finished last night, my second batch out of the batch of 5 Crimbo Cards, on a roll here, hehehe.

I have used the same layout for all 5 batches, I have used white card stock to make the square cards, coloured card stock, white card stock, Christmas patterned papers, X-Cut Corner Punch, Cuttlebug, Embossing Folder Swiss Dots, Spellbinders Floral Diecut, Spellbinders Snowflakes Diecut, Brad, Sentiments, Ribbon, Spectrum Noir Pens, and of course 2 lovely rubber stamped images from Crafts and Me called Belladonna and Clematis, yes I know they are not Christmas images but thought they would work well if used with green and red to give them more of a Christmas feel.

I feel that they have turned out quite well and so thats it for me a the mo back off to the next batch and maybe later today the next challenge, so until next time do take care, happy crafting, lol
