Hello again,
Well I have been busy making some more Christmas cards ready to send in a few weeks time. I have been determined to rid myself of several paper pads of which there is only scraps left. I'm making smaller cards this year as my usual 5x7" card blanks have not been available where I usually purchase.
Three designs using scraps and basic supplies only.
Christmas Tree design- White cardstock, Paper Rose Nesting rectangle dies, Christmas tree die, My Minds Eye Paper pad Mistletoe Magic scraps, MFT sentiment stamps, black ink, card blanks 10.6x14.9cm
Christmas Bauble design 2- White cardstock, Paper Rose nesting rectangle dies, Kraft patterned paper, scraps of red cardstock, ribbon scraps from gifts, MFT Hand-lettered Christmas sentiment stamp, clear embossing ink, Detail Gold embossing powder, paper scraps from Carta bella Christmas Time and Kaisercraft Peppermint wishes paper pads, Kaisercraft Holly stamp, circle die, pinking shear circle die
I would like to enter these cards in:-

A super collection of card and a great way of using snippets. I especially love the cards with the trees. xx
Wow, what a fabulous collection of card Megan, well done! Great idea to use up the last of the scraps in your paper books, that's probably a goal I should have too. I love your Christmas tree cards, fantastic combination of colours and patterns.
Cheers,
Beccy
I love these, they are very clever and such a good way to use up your papers. Thanks for sharing them at we love stamping. Am I right in thinking the only stamping on your cards is the sentiment? xx
Thanks for visiting me and answering my question. Yes, stamping and paper piecing does fit the criteria xx
Lovely use of snippets here! What lovely cards you've created. Thanks so much for joining Di and me at Christmas Kickstart, Jo x
Wonderful use of snippets and brilliant to see you back playing. You were borderline on the number of challenges you entered to be fair, no more then 10 in total for the Playground, but I've let it go this time. Besides which - what a flipping genius idea!

Hi Megan,it me again. I love all these cards and must apologise for not reading your post properly. I hadn't realised you'd entered different cards for different challenges - Silly me just spotted that the list was long without realising it was broken down between several cards. Doh.
Hugs

Thank you for sharing your lovely crafting for Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper November challenge - I hope to see you again soon. x
What a fabulous collection of Christmas cards. Each and every one looks really effective xx
Beautiful cards!
Thanks for your comment on my blog about Jocelyn Proust papers, which I agree are gorgeous. I thought you might like to know I got the paper I used at Kmart and was surprised that it was quite good quality.
What fun festive designs, and such a great way to use up those scraps!
Thanks for sharing with us at ABC Christmas Challenges.
Great idea for some quick Christmas cards, Megan. Thanks for sharing your cards with us at ABC Christmas Challenge.
