Christmas 2

Hi Everyone.....
I've been out of town for a week and when I got back my Internet connection went bad so had to wait the weekend out to get a new modem..... but it's fixed again and I'm up and running better then ever....I think it's was going bad for awhile...
On to to my second batch of Christmas cards....
These are my favorite so far... I LOVE this OLD stamp from 2005 by; Paper Inspiration of "Father Christmas".  I think I've used several times, but always to some coloring on him... but this time I just stamped him on Very Vanilla with Memento- Rich Cocoa ink...All the edges were rubbed with CTMH-Vineyard Berry and I used the same to stamp the Merry Christmas on the outside and in.
The plaid paper was some old stash I've had and used for years... and the die I used on that and the inside were MFT-Perfect Bracket Edge...


 Then I just warped some 10-lb Hemp Cord around and added a button to each... just some old buttons I had gotten from the flee market.

Here's a close up of the front and the cute snow flacks I stamp on the edge of the outside and in... 
Will that's it for this batch... Now on to my next bunch..... Yea Whooo!!

Hi Dotty,

Beautiful Christmas card. I can see why you've used the Father Christmas stamp several times -- he's great.

Hugs,
Kay
