Sadly today is my last installment for the 2015 Same but Different Christmas Series and I have saved one of the easiest and funkiest techniques til last, cause we all know it’s getting very close now and lets face facts, if your cards are not made yet you are going to want something real nice and easy…   Oh, and elegant and fun to make too!

Well, I thought I had finished but when it came to writing out my Chrissy cards as well as adding the collection for the Caring hearts Drive, to be honest I needed some more, so I thought I would make a bonus video as I created just one more set of cards for my 2015 Same but Different Christmas Card Series.  Hope you like them!

Back with another 6 Christmas cards and today is all about using the supplies that I have at hand (ie they may no longer be available but still very easy to replicate).  And keeping with the retro Christmas theme with some ‘non- Christmassy’ papers and a very cas design which is very easy to make multiples of.

What better way to start my 2015 Same but Different Card Series than a little challenge to myself.  Six of the same but different cards and using only two stamp sets!   I decided to play with these gorgeous sets from Penny Black and no regrets there, they stamped beautifully and with a little flash of silver it was done before I knew it!

Over the next few weeks I’m going to be sharing this series of Christmas cards and I look forward to you joining me in the fun.  I will warn you that not all the products I will be using are current, it’s kinda a budget thing, but really just a great way to use the stash.  But obviously anything can be switched out for whatever fabulous products that you already have around you, that’s part of the fun (cause you know that when you use it up, you have a right to buy some more…..  true!).
