June Christmas Cards "WISHING YOU A JOYOUS SEASON" set of 5

I realized last night that I hadn't made my five Christmas cards for this month.. oops!  so I made these real quick, because it was late last night and I was tired.  

I used some papers that are actually the display papers for some Memory Box papers.  A friend gifted me them last year and when I was sorting through the pile yesterday, I found the display pages.. I decided to cut them down, layer them on gold vellum and put them on some Cherry Cobbler (*love this color!) card bases. The sentiment is from an MFT Christmas set that was a freebie with $60 purchase and I put a tiny gold brad on each side of the sentiment pieces.

SUPPLIES:
card stock:  Cherry Cobbler, white, Gold Vellum
pattern paper:  Memory Box pattern paper
stamps:  MFT Christmas set
ink:  SU Cherry Cobbler
accessories:  Scor-Pal, Mini Gold Brads, Paper Piercer

MFTWSC178 "GOD BLESS USA" Patriotic card

I started this card a couple of days ago and have been so busy  I had forgot about it.  This morning I looked in my stamp room and seen it sitting on my desk.. and realized I needed to finish it up and get it posted.   I don't want to miss any of the MFT sketch challenges this year and if we have to move soon, I hope that I can still keep up with them.

I didn't have the die for the top layer on this card.. so I made one to cut with my Silhouette Cameo.   I made a rectangle and then a small square and duplicated the small squares, sized everything and that was it.

here is the sketch I used:  MFTWSC178

SUPPLIES:

card stock:  Cherry Cobbler, Neenah Patriot Blue, White, Gold Poster Board
ink:  Midnight Muse
