I decided to recreate card ideas from the Craft with Heart Cardmaking kit substituting the Jingle Joy Paper Packet and sticker page, and don't forget those zip strips on one side of each patterned paper.  

Short on time? 

This is FAST and EASY!

 Card #1: the flower is from the "Every Bit of Wonderful Stamp set" each stamp set you purchase raises $7 for Operation Smile. The bottom trim stamped on this card is from the November Stamp of the Month

 

Close up shows the shine of the gold shimmer brush and black trim from the Jingle Joy paper pack sticker page. The other strips are from the Zip Strips of Jingle Joy.  The flowers were colored with the TriBlend Markers. 

Inspired by these cards: September - December

My first card was inspired from the top center card.

I had so much fun with the self imposed challenge to create cards that copy the ideas found in my card supcription.  It was really easy, though the hard part was just finding the time to photo and upload the cards.  I don't work Friday so here I am one week later....

 card imitations #2-4.  I'm sure I will be using this technique in the future.

So many ideas, so little time.
