I finished all my Christmas cards! Yeah! I tend to save the cards I get in the mail and this year tried to recycle them into my new cards (the ribbons, ornaments, stars, flowers, Noel words). I used my Sizzix and also my Cricut to cut the shapes. Love those two toys! I didn't make these as dimensional as last year as I had to smoosh them so I didn't have to pay extra postage. These pics are samples of the basic designs. I made about 70 cards. I also made a few sets of Thank You cards but didn't get the thank yous lined up perfectly so I may add something to them to cover the crooked words. These sets go together quickly once I pick the papers. The paper lace was cut with punches by Martha Stewart and EK Success. Love these!

Oh WOW Stephanie!!! These are all SO GORGEOUS!!!!!
These are wonderful! Great job!
I've only been able to have a quick look at your site, but I'll be back.Like your works.You seem to have Many skills!!
Great way to recycle! Talk about frugal and classy. A tiny hint, if you think your "thank you's" are not straight, realign them. If you think you cannot lift them up, get a bottle of Un-du. It will lift them up with no tearing, leave the stickiness in place and you can save yourself on all you hard work!!
Wow they are all beautiful
What beautiful cards you've made.
