*****************************************

My first card uses the "charlie brown Christmas tree" (as I call it) from the main kit.  I colored in the ornaments in the blue, green, and pink colors I've chosen for all of my cards.  I added Prisma Glitter to the ornaments.  The sentiments were stamped in bold black ink and a thin strip of black cardstock was adhered at the bottom to ground the image.

*****************************************

My second card goes all RETRO.  Using the Pop Art Fancy Dies, I die cut them from colors of cardstock and adhered them to a background stamped in grey ink using the Mod Pattern Bold Prints stamp.  A simple Merry Christmas die cut sentiment done in black along with one lone black star.

*****************************************

My third card uses the stamp set Retro Christmas Messages.  I stamped the diamond in blue, green, and pink inks across my white panel.  I added in one of the messages with foam adhesive and some stamped stars.  As a finishing touch, stickles glitter was added to the stars.

*****************************************

My final card uses the Santa and sleigh from Out of this World Christmas.  I can see this set used for SO many occasions and not just for the holidays.  I started by ink blending Broken China Distress Ink into the center of a white panel.  I added the world and santa with foam adhesive along with the sentiment strip.
