So pretty Rachelle! You're so right, it feels good to have some cards in the stash this early in the year.

Great job everyone!! Yes, that does look like the same paper pad. That's funny so many of us have that pad.

OMGosh you all...fabulous cards!

Jen great mix of cards. Is that green tree from a MFT die and is that silver glitter paper it's on?

Pam, I'm so glad you posted your cards...they are adorable. One trick I use when matting several prints together is to edge at least the top layer with an inked border if not the under layer also. It helps separate two busy prints.

Rachelle, wow! 10 cards in one fell swoop! They are wonderful and love your paper choices.

Here are the ones I originally did that I don't like. I need to do something else with them but am just going to wait a while.

Pam P I think that is why I was having such a problem with these. I am not much for pattern on pattern.

Jen I love how you made your cards other than Christmas.

Everyone did a great job on this. I love those blue ones!

Like I said to Pam, Cheryl. Add a mat over the bold print so less of it shows and there is a place for the eye to rest before whatever is in the center of the card. Those big bold prints are hard to use.
