Now that my Christmas boutiques are done I'll be posting a few of the items I had for sale….

I dusted off an old tutorial to make a couple of tabletop banners using current DSP & ribbons.  I did use a couple of retired alphabet sets that I can't bear to part with.

Holly Jolly Greetings and Stitched with Cheer stamp sets; Emerald Envy and Real Red inks & cardstocks; Presents & Pinecones DSP; Red Glimmer paper; 1-1/4" and 1-3/8" circle punches; retired scallop circle punch.

Another simple card this time using the Merriest Wishes stamp set and Merry Tags thinlits.

Garden Green cardstock and inkpad; Gold Foil cardstock; Pine Bough TIEF; Baker's Twine trio pack.

I saw a card similar to this somewhere and thought I'd try it out…ended up being more work than I expected so definitely not one to mass produce unless you have a lot of time.
