Christmas Theme 2013 - Traditional & Reindeers?



Looking at the Christmas Cards I have made so far this year (approaching 200) a distinct style is appearing - traditional or reindeers, and sometimes both!

 Last year I made far too many cute cards, and with lots of older relatives, they just were not suitable. Hopefully this batch will be better. 

 The papers and embellishments from crafting magazines and shops also seem to be favouring an old fashioned, distressed and Victorian style. What types of Christmas cards are you making this year??

    Beautiful selection of Christmas cards. I have made around a hundred so far (including orders) and they are a very varied mix of CAS, traditional and bag up to date, but I don't do cutie so none of them :o)

    I love the use of the pulp paper on the top card, I'm sure anyone wanting a traditional card rather than a cute one will love it! hopped by from Docrafts xx
