Christmas Cards 2016

I usually make a couple of sets of Christmas cards. You may have seen my first lot of festive cards HERE - they were mainly used for work mates, and friends I've seen personally earlier in December.
These are the cards I've mailed. I began {again} with stenciled bases

and I still had some of these from when I made my birthday cards earlier this month

I started by tearing and applying a lovely serviette in small pieces along with some lovely star printed tissue

And then finished the cards in various ways - most included metallic machine stitching to add a bit of Christmas sparkle

Here's a few closer up

I shared these tree ones in my previous post about mini gelli plates.
