Christmas cards - using dies

The calendar is showing 17. December and I thought I'd share a few cards I made for the Scrap the Rainbow challenge blog. I've used what I'd call nontraditional Christmas colours.

First one in Brown, gold and kraft. I realise unfortunately that the deer diecut in gold does not show up very well, but it is there. I've used Sparkle Medium through a Dina Wakley stencil, sprayed with Coffee Shop and Creme de Cacao Glimmer Mist from Tattered Angels. The stamped banner is from the coordinating stamp set with the stensil from DW. The cardstock is from Bazzill and are in the colours Kraft and Java, the Gold glitter paper is from Best Creations. The die cutting out the greeting is from Papirdesign.

The second card is made using a die from Studio Light. The base is Kraft cardstock from Bazzill, the patterened paper from Kaiser Craft and the greeting is made using a diecut from Kort&Godt 8saying Christmas hug)

Growing in Unity Bloghop

One of the really cool things about being chosen as a Growing in Unity Girl (or Guy) is getting the chance to contribute to the Growing in Unity blog hop, and this time I was so fortunate to join.
The card I made for this post is made with one of my favourite new stamps from Unity, Scenic Route, and the motif is so fitting since we recently bought a new (used) car and it is a VW Caravelle. Not one of the old style as on the card, but still... And it is blue rather than red, but I thought "It's Christmas".

Remember this is a GIU blog hop so please continue to see what the rest of the gals have to show you.  Unity will have a prize drawing at the end of this blog hop so comment on all the blogs you visit to be included in for the prize.
