The darkness of the pic sorta masks the fun feel of the card, but as you can see it's an old set, and it uses my long lost CRIMPER!! When was the last time I used that thing? FOREVER ago!!
Now here's the new adaptation with the new look:
I took the pre-cut opportunity to make 5 fun Christmas cards, just ready to send to friends and family! How fun is that?!
I still used the crimper because it really adds dimension to the card, and besides, the crimper was in dire need of being used. It's hard to see the sparkle of the snow on the snowy scene, but it's there...oh yes, it's there.
And, in order to get it just right, I had to do what is a long-lost technique for me, the long lost MASKING technique.
Ahhh, the memories are coming alive today!

Cute cards! I love the snowmen!
Your UFO's are great Gina...and such wonderful ideas of ways to use up those old kits and scraps laying around! I really love the Christmas card...VERY cute!
That looks fantastic! I love the snowman and the crimped piece really does add a nice touch.
I really like the snowman one. I really can see some sparkle in there!
How awesome! I have both those sets & a crimper that needs the dust dusted off it, kwim?
LOL,
Gina
