Today's project.  Over the weekend I spent a few hours with a card kit.  The Creative Memories Nordic Christmas card kit.  It came with 24 cards and envelopes, stickers, adhesive laser cut ribbon and bling.  I added more Nordic paper, more bling (My Mind's Eye enamel dots) and the matching 3-D Nordic stickers.  I didn't quite complete the 24 yet, when I do finish I think I will divide these into a couple of sets to give as gifts.

 

 

I used corner rounders, spellbinders and border punches on various cards.

Here I used some cricut cuts I originally cut the wrong size.  I saved these and now I get to use them.  Here I added some Recollections felt ribbon and put My Mind's Eye enamel dots in each eyelet.
