I was trying to have enough handmade cards that everyone would get one this year, but unfortunately, about 30 people will still get store bought.  :(  Maybe next year, because I'm done for this year.  (Maybe soon I'll have a post with several I made last week.)  Anyway, I was making multiples near the end to try to get enough and I loved this adorable singing mice image and made 6 of the same, but they're all different.  See?

My image is the colored version of Di' Digis "Singing Mice."  I printed it 3 times on white CS and 3 times on Kraft.   I cut them out with CottageCutz Double Stitched Ovals.  The BG and banner papers are the Paper Studio "Old World Winter."  The fishtails are the banners from Spellbinders Nested Lacey Pennants.  My sentiment is Momenta and stamped with Versafine Black Onyx.

Here are all the "varieties"! :)

 See? The same, yet different. ;)

O Holy Night - CCC #22

Happy Sunday to you!  It's time for Christmas Card Challenges!

I found this polka dot paper in my scraps and thought it made the perfect night sky!!  The brown cardstock was cut with a Poppystamps Stitched Landscapes die.  My nativity scene is Die-Versions Nativity Border.  I had to trim one animal off of the right side.  My Momenta clear sentiment was stamped with Versafine Onyx and heat embossed.   Pretty simple, but really beautiful IRL!  {{I just  can't take pics that make my cards look like good! :/ }}

I found some blue paper with teeny tiny stars instead of the dots and made several more just like this.  Beautiful and post-office-friendly!

I didn't pay close enough attention to my brown pieces, so some of the "dirt" is higher on some cards. :/


This week's challenge's optional inspiration is Nativity...
