Family Christmas cards

I promise these will be the last Christmas cards I post for a while...but these are the cards I sent to my family. They're all fairly similar in style but I had a lovely time playing with some of my new 'birthday' tools and dies. These included rounding the corners with my Crop-a-dile Corner Chomper, and making lovely snowflakes with my Martha Stewart deep edge snowflake trim punch. For Jessie's cards I also got to play with my new Letraset Promarkers. These pens are simply fantastic - they create a brilliant finish with no felt-tip lines, and the colours are gorgeous. I never knew colouring could be so much fun!

Finishing off

After a frantic few weeks of extra hours at work and family birthdays (will post pirate party photos later), I finally snatched a couple of hours scrapping yesterday morning. I went straight for the 'ongoing projects' box and managed to finish several pages that have been sitting around waiting for dates, titles,journaling etc. And here are a handful...
