2 Christmas Cards From A Quilted Christmas

I didn't get these cards done in time to post this morning.  I worked on them some more today so I'm posting late for Thursday and early for Friday.

Have you seen the new "A Quilted Christmas cart"?  It's pretty cute.  There are a lot of layers to the main image.  You can make an image as detailed as you like or simple.  You can also do just a silhouette.  I used the angel on page 52 for my cards.

The card base is 5X6.5".  The angel and all components on this card were cut at 5 inches. There are several layers.  The one thing I don't like about this card are the facial features.  I wish I was an artist.  I would just draw them. The Peace On earth is from Scandinavian Christmas Cards.

This card is made using the card feature on page 52.  It was cut at 5.5".  There is really no room for a sentiment on the front unless you just put Peace or Joy on it.  You could take this cartridge, use the card feature and have all your Christmas cards done in a short while.

We appreciate your visits and comments.

  1. These are both very pretty. Like you I don't care for the face either. I made this angel a couple of weeks ago for our BBTB2 challenge. I might make a few more for Christmas.

  2. Beautiful cards. If you use your Gypsy you could use the hide contour feature and I think it would look wonderful plain. TFS
