I dropped the ball the last few weeks - you know those Christmas cards don't make themselves - I've missed creating a card using the fun sketches at Freshly Made Sketches... but today I've used Jen B's for a Christmas card!
There might have been another little die set in my recent purchase from Concord & 9th... Tree Topper! With just the cutest little set of ornament dies that can be mixed and matched in so many ways - here's how I used them for FMS...
You'll be seeing quite a bit of 'winter white' here this season.
Most of us remember these 'retro' ornaments - they also make
me think 'Jetson's!' Now you know how really old I am!
Okay, they didn't call that set tree topper for nothing... the sentiment is another from PFS Banner Christmas set and the embossed panels were a gift from Marcia.

These are lovely! Kudos to you, fiddling with those itty bitty pieces, LOL! But the end results are lovely! I LOVE the starry paper as well as the embossing behind the tree one! So pretty!
ReplyDeleteThose little ornaments are too cute and I like the white pine bits you hung them from. Then you have those itty bitty ornaments on the tree, how sweet are they! Two darling cards, Michele!
ReplyDeleteDoes that mean I'm old(er) too because I remember the Jetson's??!! Haha! The ornaments do remind me of them and the retro vibe and your cards are both fantastic!! Glad you were able to find some uses from the panels too! Sweet, sweet cards my friend!! Hugs. :0)
ReplyDeleteI love this shade of green and brown together and these are such sweet ornaments! The embossed panels and starry background are the perfect setting for putting the star on the tree! Love this!
ReplyDeleteThese are both just absolutely cute and fun! Your creativity knows no bounds. I love all the white and texture. Clever use of the sketch on the first card, and pretty layering on the second!
ReplyDeleteTwo absolutely beautiful cards! Love your take on the sketch!
ReplyDeleteWhat a charming set of ornaments and yes, I remember the Jetsons very well. I used to sketch Jane and Judy all the time ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous release as usual from C&9th, they always do the BEST Christmassy stuff, but it's you that has made it shine!! I was just looking at their new sets, thinking Have I got enough time for postage here in the UK??? Louise says I do lol.
ReplyDeleteWow, Michele! Your cardmaking skills are on fire. Man, I wish I lived closer to you so I could watch you create magic!
ReplyDeleteThose tiny ornaments are so cute, but I bet all the little pieces had a mind of their own. You did a great job xx
ReplyDeleteThose tiny ornaments are so cute and I can see them in a variety of colors. I love the hand adding the star to the tree. Two fabulous Christmas cards, Michele.
ReplyDeleteTwo adorable cards, Michele, and I just love those sweet little ornaments! Then there's the Grinch, putting the topper on without letting us know that he really does have a heart for Christmas!
