I've been "holed up" in my craft room making Christmas cards. At least that's what Sweetie calls it. I moved my laptop out of the way, then piled paper, pens, glues, stamps, inks and so many other things I can't see the table top. For a highly organized individual (read: anal retentive) this mess I find oddly comforting.
A wonderful youtube video I stumbled across lead to the two 3D cards above. It was very easy and I really enjoy the results. If you are interested check out this link:

The three cards above are the result of cutting up some old cards I've had laying around for years. This was fun, and what a great way to recycle!
I had to do something with this lucious paper I found at
The Papery in Victoria.. I doodled on it with one of my many gold pens. I think I have a pen addiction....
I'm not sure about this one... so I haven't glued it down yet. I think it needs more pizzazz.
The cardinal is from a stamp set I purchased at Michaels last week. The snowflakes too! LOVE IT! And it looks particularily pretty in person as it's highlighted by a
Jelly Roll pen... "copper star"
This is one of my many attempts at wire words. So cute... but I need to wrap my pliers as they removed some of the lovely color from the wire.

Your cards are beautiful Angela! I sometimes use recycled cards as well to craft ~ very fun! There's nothing like a lovely crafty day when it is cold out. I put in a movie and craft my day away!
Happy Wednesday!
