Penny Black Christmas Cards

It's time to show a few more of the Christmas cards I had made for my co-workers. These two cards feature images by Penny Black and were colored with my Promarkers.
The mouse and bird card uses digital papers by Carina Gardner for Jessica Sprague and Simple Joys from Nitwit Papers.
The Merry Christmas ribbon is from Michaels and the sentiment is also Penny Black.

These other cards feature Penny Black's caroling penguin trio and have been colored with the Promarkers.
The DP is the DCWV 2011 Christmas stack. Martha Stewart snowflake corner punch and some stickles.

Christmas Card #2

Here's another of the Christmas cards I made this past weekend. This one I CASEd from Sankari Sunshine blog. Her card is quite beautiful! I did the best I could with what I had, but it's not near as pretty.

Christmas Card Cram Weekend

This weekend I had to put away all my sewing stuff and get out all of my card making things. I designated this weekend as the one to make all the Christmas & December birthday cards I would need for my co-workers. I need 14 cards total by Tuesday. The good news is I have 11 finished! I think I will be able to make my deadline.
The not so good news is, I had to do this without the use of my Cricut or my new Cameo! I only had the few punches and shapers that I purchased before I bought paper cutting machines. The blade on my Cameo is defective, so that was a no go; and I like to use the MTC software with my Cricut, but I must have updated my software at some point as it was not working with the Cricut, even though I hadn't used it since last Christmas time.
Anyway here are two of the cards. To make this a bit faster and easier I made two of each design. And, since I'm making cards, I'll enter them into a challenge or two along the way.

This is the Bugaboo stamp JJ Christmas Cheers
She looks like she's having quite a merry Christmas!
I colored with my Promarkers, without trying to blend and shade, no time for that!
The papers are SEI from a few years ago.
The green trim is from AC Moore.
The sentiment is Studio G


I'm entering this in the "Santa Baby" card challenge at Catch the Bug Challenge Blog.
