Yep...I am still making Christmas cards (and ATCs)...I am going to be soooooo far ahead of the game come December...if I can convince myself to actually part with the Christmas cards I have been making all summer :)
The card and ATC below were made for swaps for a crafty group I belong to on Facebook. The card made its way to Sherry in Nova Scotia and I made 5 of the ATCs to swap with Barb, Deb, Lynn and Sandra in various places in Ontario (and kept one for my collection).
I love what other people have been doing with doilies, so of course I had to buy a pack at Vicky Boutin's yard sale last month - and yep - I actually used a few!!
Here's the card:
And here's the ATC:
I used the five petal punch to **try** and make a poinsettia. I punched two red and one green, spritzed them with water, squished them up and then heat dried them. I'm pretty happy with how they came out :)
