three fun holiday cards



Hello Friends, How was your weekend? Today I have THREE cards to share using a Special Edition Card Kit from Simon Says Stamp. I am giving away the December Card Kit (not the special edition)  here
This Special Edition Kit inspired by Tim Holtz has a special stamp set included and it's jam packed with lots of goodies. The goodies can be purchased separately if the kit runs out.  
Can you see all of the fun elements that I don't normally use like the Metal Word Bands, Mirrored Stars, tickets and paperclips too? I didn't have the T.H. Holly die cut so I use a this Maple Leaf. What do you think? Can it pass for holly? I distressed the "holly" & used this stencil to give it an artistic spin. 
This card was soo much fun to create. The mirrored sheets are so awesome and will enhance any die cut you have. They were perfect to use on the blades of the skates. I stamped the trees on the skates, inked, distressed, and rock candied it up. The background stars were colored with the Picket Fence White marker using this star stencil
I think the pictorial below will answer any questions that you might have?? If not please send me an email. 
Thanks for the visit today. Hugs, Kathy
