Christmas Cards 2009

I have been VERY slow in posting on my blog :(
I will try really hard to do better!

As you may have noticed, I have 3 new tags along the side - Magnolia Yahoo Groups, Color Me Creative and Magnolia-licious.

I have fallen head over heels in love with the Tilda and Edwin stamps from Magnolia! These stamps are so special that something special MUST be used to color them.
SO --- My gift to my self for birthday, Mother's Day, Christmas, anniversary, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day and any I may have forgotten has been my Copic markers. And -- I have been testing them out! The Color Me Creative Classroom is a series of video classes by Suzanne Dean on using the Copic markers and all the fun techniques you can do using them.

Here are pics of the Christmas cards I did using the Tilda stamps and Copic markers.







This card is for my grandson Stephen's December Birthday.










These cards were for my grandsons Jeremy and Stephen for Christmas.









My daughter-in-law, Carrie and my son got these two cards.










These were for my daughter Phyllis and grandaughter Paula.









This was the general Christmas card that went to my stamping friends and a few other special people.



There were also four other cards for my daughter Becky and her family, but I can't find pictures of them. Imagine that!




Thanks for looking. I hope you have enjoyed them.




Blessings,
