Newly created Christmas Notecards

I've been making my own gift labels and the occasional greeting card for many years, but around a year ago I found all these cool papers and embellishments and stickers, etc. that are used for scrap booking and card making and so begins my love for card-making! So I decided to start a business selling my handmade cards & gift labels and other paper crafts. A couple of months ago I discovered that many card-makers use stamped images, often hand colored, to embellish their cards with so I went searching for some.
This is a set of Christmas note-cards I recently created for a card exchange I am participating in with some on-line friends of mine. They are nice but simple designs done with archival quality card-stock, printed papers, die-cut embellishments and ribbon bows.
Just today I received some of the new stamps I found in my search, all with a holiday theme.....can't wait to get started making some cards with them. I played around with them this afternoon and created a set of 10 gift labels! Already I want more designs to choose from, lol. I may even become a Stampin Up demonstrator, oh the supplies and stamps I could have, not to mention what fun it would be to share the fun of creating cards with others! Thanks for stopping by!
