There's just a little over two weeks left until Christmas, which means plenty of time to create some cute holiday cards to send to friends and family. Today's Sunday Showcase features a few more card ideas from my awesome Too Cool Demo Team!
You're Invited: I'll be finishing up my cards on December 18 and I'd love for you to join me! Bring your own projects or create some of my leftover holiday cards at my Procrastinator's Open Stamp Night & Holiday Card Buffet.
Created by Michelle Hoover, Too Cool Demo Team.
Michelle used the Ornament Keepsakes Bundle of stamps and Framelits to create this card. I love the beautiful muted tones of Bravo Burgundy, Always Artichoke and Night of Navy, layered on an Early Espresso background embossed with the Lacy Brocade Impresions Folder. Very nice! Also features: Early Espresso Baker's Twine, and Curly Cute sentiment.

Another cute card with the Ornament Keepsakes stamps. I love how Rita created a pine bough for this ornament to hang from with the Watercolor Winter stamp set. That set is worth it simply for that pine image! And, look at those piercing details using the Festive Paper-Piercing Pack template—pretty! Also features: Cherry Cobbler Baker's Twine.

This card brings a touch of vintage with all the pretty patterns and layers. Michelle used the tree image from Christmas Lodge (also available as a single stamp) on the Windows Frame Framelit die-cuts. The background has Candlelight Christmas Designer Series Paper and some Cherry Cobbler Finishing Touches Edgelit borders layered on a Lacy Brocade Very Vanilla piece. Beautiful! Also features: Petite Pairs greeting, Oval Punch, and Cherry Cobbler Seam Binding.

Jodi's card highlights the lovely papers from Be of Good Cheer for a quick and easy card! Just add a sentiment from Beautiful Season and punch out with the Extra-Large Oval Punch. It layers perfectly inside the texture embossed oval from the Designer Frames Impressions Folders set. I especially love the mini poinsettias created with the Boho Blossoms Punch. Also features: Cherry Cobbler Seam Binding and Metallic Brads.

This is another version of a card Michelle created with more traditional colors featured here: Merry & Bright. Michelle used the Snow Flurry Die to create a lovely snowflake with Silver Glimmer Paper and fresh Baja Breeze and Primrose Petals colors. Also features: Merry & Type greeting, Decorative Label Punch (on sale thru Nov. 28!), Snow Festival Designer Series Paper, Perfect Polka Dot Texture Impressions Folder, and Rhinestone Jewels.

Darla tried stamping these cute Scentsational Season images on Crumb Cake instead white card stock. That subtle difference in paper color really changes the card to give it a more "country" feel. She dressed them up with some Cherry Cobbler Dazzling Details glitter glue. I'm really liking the border treatment, too, with the Delicate Details Impressions Folders and Large Scallop Edgelit combo. Nice touch! Also features: Holiday Collection Framelits or Scentsational Season Bundle, Be of Good Cheer, and Very Vanilla Seam Binding.

Doesn't that coffee mug from Scentsational Season make you feel all warm and cozy?! Carmen colored the coffee with an Early Espresso Marker and made a little slit for the die-cut steam to fit into. Great details! I love the simple graphic design with the Be of Good Cheer strips. Also features: Holiday Collection Framelits, More Merry Messages, Oval Punch and Perfect Polka Dots Impressions Folder.
Created by Michelle Hoover, Too Cool Demo Team.
Ooohh, this one is so sparkly! Michelle used the Multipurpose Adhesive sheets die-cut with the Circles #2 Die to adhere the Dazzling Diamonds Glitter on the skates image from Winter Memories. I love the layers in the background, too, using the Night of Navy Regals Patterns DSP, and Silver Glimmer Paper. Also features: Perfect Polka Dots Impressions Folder, Teeny Tiny Wishes, Word Window Punch, and Modern Label Punch.
