Christmas cards for friends.

With Thanksgiving behind us it's time to kick our Christmas cards into high gear.  Today I'm posting a few cards that I've been working on and have already sent out to friends.  The first two cards were sent to a couple of my StampNation sistahs up in Canada for a Christmas card exchange we're having over at StampNation.

This first one went out to my Sistah Sue.

Ink: rockin' red (Catherine Pooler Designs), natural (My Faovorite Things), forever green (Hero Arts), peeled paint (Ranger Distress), crystal pewter, found topaz (The Ton), onyx black (Versafine), clear emboss (Versamark).

Accessories: Winter Woodland dies (WPlus9), Whirl Wreath dies (Penny Black), Cross-Stitch Oval (My Favorite Things), Border Builders (Lil' Inker Designs), clear sparkle embossing powder (WOW!), fun foam.
 

And this one went north to my Dream Team Sistah Ally.
