This past December - I participated in the Waltzingmouse Secret Santa run in the WMS forum, in the Stamping Room under
Stamping Chat. Everyone who signed up got the name of a person to be Secret Santa to by sending them a card they made using Waltzingmouse Stamps. Today I'm sharing the Christmas card I sent and the one I received!
Here is the card I sent to Kim Heggins who I was Secret Santa to. I used stamps from
Candy Jar Christmas and
Candy Jar Christmas Fillers. Inside the card was stamped
Been good??!
And then I received a card in the mail and found out
my Secret Santa was Katie Gehring. She sent me this beautiful Christmas Tree card. I just love how she cut out her tree on a panel and stamped all these little stamps from
Oven Fresh Gingerbread Joy on her card base and laid the tree panel over it. The banner sentiment is perfectly placed, don't you think?! AND she wrote me a lovely note inside as well! Thank you Katie!
All of the Secret Santa cards are being linked over at
the Waltzingmouse Blog today - let's go check them out! We can get some ideas for this year's Christmas Cards !?!?! It's never too early to start right!?!

ReplyDeletehow totally adorable...that little cookie jar is so cute filled with little gingerpeople..hehe
ReplyDeleteJulia your card is just way too adorable! I am sure Kim loved it!
ReplyDeleteLove the red and white card Katie sent you too, with the tree cut out. How fun was this!
These are so very special Julia. I love seeing all the creativity that spread Christmas cheer this year! Happy new year, girlie!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous gingerbread man card Julia, I love the texture with the embossing.
ReplyDeleteSuch great cards Julia...I bet there is going to be a lot of Christmas cards displayed this year, way beyond Christmas, Valentines and Easter! I love the pretty card you sent to Kim and that card you received was so creative...loved that tree cut out so perfectly!
ReplyDeleteJulia I adore those little gingerbread men! They look fabulous! I love the red on the tag and the embossing. The card you received is brilliant too - so clean looking and fun with the window!
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are great. How interesting, both of you used an image of a gingerbread.
ReplyDeleteI love them both!!
ReplyDeleteThe absolutely adorable "award" you created (borrowing that idea *wink*) with the yummy treat jar...
and that absolutely fabulous tree...
another idea I think I shall borrow!
So many ideas for this year's cards...
which I should probably start on...
next week! :)
I love the texture on this! Adorable card Julia!
ReplyDeleteJulia, the card you sent me is just simply amazing and even more beautiful in person. The cookies in the cookie jar looked good enough eat! Thank you for the amazing card.
ReplyDeleteOh, Julia, your red ribbon card is a blue ribbon winner, for sure! I never think to stamp and then emboss the texture, but it is such a cool effect. Katie's tree cut out and banner are inspired, too! This was a fun swap.
