2012 Christmas card pt 1

When I sat down to figure out what cuts i was going to use for this year's Christmas cards I could not decide. I think that part of the problem is that I have too many cuts to choose from. Although the angel card I made a few weeks ago turned out great I knew it would take way too long to make all the cards I needed. I narrowed it down to 3 different cuts. I just got one of the latest cricut cartridges.... Create a Critter 2, I will be using 2 of the character cuts from that cartridge and one from the original Create a Critter.

The first card I have completed is using the reindeer and lights cuts from CAC, I just didn't like the way he looked on CAC2. I also used George and Basic Shapes to cut out the red square as the ink does not show up very well on the green paper. I used red glitter glue on the reindeer's nose and the light bulbs and a white gel pen to add the dots for that little extra that was missing.

What I used:

• Autumn Leaves 4x5.5 in white card and envelope
• various card-stock colors
• DCWV holiday stack (green dotted paper)
• Ditto red glitter glue
• Gelly Roll Gel pen in white
• Scrappy Moms A Holiday to Remember "have a holly jolly holiday!"
• Cricut Create a Critter (reindeer)
• Cricut George and Basic Shapes (red square)
