Whew! I've spent the last week working on Christmas cards for hours and hours. To date, I have a total of 161 cards. My original goal was to make a card for each of the residents at a nursing home/rehab center that my husband used for physical therapy following surgeries. I knew I needed no less than 85. I've met my goal and have extras to send to a friend who "volunteered" to make 150 cards for two other nursing centers.
Swiss Dots embossing folder was used on the base. The image is clip art found online. I pop dotted it for dimension. The sentiment was computer generated.
This is a punch art card. I embossed 2" circles and cut them in half for the collar. The half circles are pop dotted for dimension. The buttons are 1/2" circles with white gel pen dots. The buckle is a 1" square with a 3/4" square punched out of the center.
The Christmas trees were cut with my Cameo. I cut them 2" tall and embossed one with a Swiss Dot folder. The 1 1/4" red strip was embossed with a Darice folder. The sentiment was printed using Hallmark Car Studio software.
Each of these cards was inspired by ones seen online.

These all are great cards Linda. I have made 125 Christmas ornaments so far. But it has been a long time since I enjoyed making anything.
This year I just set me a place up in my LR and when I look over and want to make some I just plug the glue gun in.
I love that volunteered is in quotes! Thank you so much for helping me! I'm planning to start mine next week.
I love your Santa card
