Christmas cards are some of my favorite cards to create. There are so many options of tools to use and an endless number of designs. These are some of my favorites over the years,
Some cards have stories behind them, such as the pie cards.
When we lived in Fresno, CA one year we invited friends, Jim and Doris and their 3 children for Christmas dinner. Doris called me that morning and said she was in labor. I encouraged them to still come and if it looked like their baby would arrive that day then the family would still be fed and the 3 children could be with us as she and Jim went to the hospital. As dinner progressed, so did Doris' contractions. Jim wanted to have his dessert before leaving for the hospital - which he did. Twenty minutes after arriving at the hospital, Kristie as born. So each year this special family is sent a pie card!
This card was created using various decorative punches.
