Christmas Cards for Crafty Chums and Family

I finally completed the few homemade Christmas cards I was making for this year. I previously made cards for Challenges and these have all been sent this week too. I mostly sent bought cards to be honest left over from January sales, but felt I had to send some of 'my' cards to family and crafting friends. So here are a selection of the cards created this week...

Some are more simple than others , with basic images embellished with glossy accents. Others have 3 or 4 stamped images, some embossed, some sparkling with Stickles.
I have used the cuttlebug and gems on dry embossed Christmas trees and I have even gone out of my comfort zone and used peel offs as borders! Overall I stuck to the easy designs as I made most of these in one night!! I was up until 2am so if you get one please ignore the crooked matting and layering and the wobbly peel offs!!!
