You know... I like basic, simple things. And I happen to L-O-V-E craft paper (the look of it)! This... is what I started with. 

It's TIME to make Christmas CARDS!!!!

Remember MISTI? She's my new best friend. She makes all those off-centered or imperfect cards that I used to make look like...

THIS!!!!

And then I had to drag out CB... She hasn't played in a while (Cuttlebug, people... Not an actual person!!!)

And I cranked through over 30 times! Let's get real... I lost count...

I thought the edges needed a little deco... So I cropped them with one of my Crop-A-Dile Corner Chompers. (This one is "photo.") Obviously, I did the same with the craft cards, too...

And Santa came a little early and brought me these Spectrum Noire Sparkle Markers (I call my UPS driver Santa... even though "I" pay for it... YES! I ordered them off HSN...) They still came BEFORE Christmas and in time for my Christmas Cards!

Aren't they so pretty? (I used clear. Actually I had my friend pretty them up while I worked a swim meet... I think she had fun!)

So pretty! Simple, too! I love the look!

And there you have it! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

 Up next is Alicia, who has something magical for you, as well!
