My New Favorite Christmas Card

Here are my new favorite Christmas cards this year. Oh. My. Goodness.



These use Papertrey Ink's Silent Night set (for the verse) and Turning a New Leaf (for the vine). The bling, of course, makes me even happier with the layout, adding interest and shine to really dress the cards up!

I have one more post of Christmas cards, and then, I'm done making holiday cards. Several boxes of store-bought cards will meet my quota, and I'm totally okay with that. I'm looking forward to making some general cards for my sister's Christmas present.

On a personal note, we've decided to take  your advice (I think Susie mentioned it first, but can't find the comment now!) and snap our Christmas picture at the new house this weekend (it's supposed to be sunny) and let our Christmas letter double as a change-of-address notification. We'll don our Santa hats and take Daisy, too. Will share when it's done!

    These are amazing and great idea for the Christmas letter/change of address combo idea. Can't wait to see it.

    I never would have thought of using that leaf vine on a Christmas card but you have made it work beautifully. And the bling is perfect with it!
