Last minute Christmas cards

I have a confession: I am a member of a Christmas challenge design team and I make Christmas cards ALL year long, but I was still short on Christmas cards this year!!  Gasp!!  Actually, I kind of expected it, and was actually surprised that I had as many made as I did.  But, I still had to make a last minute batch and I did manage to finish them Tuesday.  Phew!  I'm waiting for 3 or 4 addresses from relatives that have moved, but other than that the rest of the cards have all been sent out!  So, here are the last 10 that I made:

 I had gotten a new snowflake set from PTI and I really wanted to use it, so I created my own background using all (except maybe one) the stamps from the set.  I used three full sized sheets of paper and just started stamping the snowflakes until I had each piece filled.  then I used a stitched rectangle die to cut four panels out of each sheet.  So, each one is just a little bit different.  I made 10 cards and then had two panels left over so I created two other cards that I will show in my next post.
The sentiment strips were all cut from pieces of scrap that were in my scrap pile.  And the "Jesus" was cut from a scrap of wrapping paper I had saved from a couple of Christmases ago.  It had a fabulous texture and shine and I just couldn't throw it away.  It worked perfectly to add a bit of interest.  To finish everything off, I added some stickles to the center of each snowflake to add a little bit of sparkle.  You can see the sparkle and the shine of the sentiment in the photo below.

Supplies:
Stamps: PTI "Fab Flakes" and "Inspired: Jesus"
Dies: PTI "Inspired: Jesus"; MFT "Blueprints 13" stitched rectangle
