First, I want to apologize for the photos...my good camera is broken, so I'm using a camera that is not as good, and it's been raining and raining here, so these were taken in my basement with florescent lighting...so sorry. I will take new photos soon. Also, I kept some of my cards on the simpler side this month, since I spent so much time on the December Daily! :) I ran out of time to make them more elaborate. I hope you like a simple card now and then.
This card is made with Layered Postmarks: Holiday.
I cut out the tree with the Layered Postmarks: Holiday die and stamped the tree in the center of the opening.

I really like how this one turned out, it's made with the new Peaceful Pinecones stamp set. I used a Mat Stack die to cut the center out and popped the Ripe Avocado cardstock up for dimension. It's all stacked onto a Card Base-ics die.

Here's a quick card made with Heart-2-Heart #9 for a wedding or anniversary. I stamped the little pink heart string three times and die cut the birds, stamped them with Soft Stone ink and popped them up for dimension. Added a saying and two little hearts from the set also. Everything is on cream cardstock for a soft look.

This one is made with Snowflake Flurries. I used them as ornaments instead of snowflakes and stitched the strings onto the card with my sewing machine.
Pink and green make a cute retro-looking card. My girls saw a pink Christmas tree at Target the other day and want one for their bedrooms, which was the inspiration for this card!

Snowflake Flurries was used once again as pretty accents to a birthday card, along with the Over Under Easy set. This set has many nice sentiments with some pretty swirl accents to add!

Last is a Hanukkah card, and I struggled with this one a little bit, because I am not very familiar with this Jewish holiday. I wasn't sure if the Star of David should be a particular color? Forgive me if it is. I thought the Enchanted Evening, Aqua Mist and Autumn Rose colors were pretty together.

LOVE your first card. The more I see Layered Postmarks: Holiday the more I convince myself I must have it. Love all the different patterns you used. Just divine! Thanks for all your hard work this release and I'm a simple girl so simple cards are always welcome in my book! :)
Your cards are so classy~I love the retro one! My girlies want pink trees too (well, the youngest would probably prefer lime green). ;)
Great cards, Danielle! I love how you used the new sets!
Love you work, Dani! Absolutely gorgeous and delightful! :) Shonna
Beautiful cards! I absolutely love the pinecones set of stamps...can hardly wait to get my hands on it!

Your cards are wonderful. And, you nailed Chanukah! BTW-any color is fine for Chanukah. The more creative the better. People tend to use white and blue for Jewish cards, because that is the color of the Israeli flag. But, just as you wouldn't always want everything in red/white/blue, Jewish occasion cards can be whatever color you choose.
Thanks for demonstrating the stamps for the month! They're all lovely!
So very lovely:)
Cute, trendy cards!!
Love love love the pinecone card and also the retro joyous holiday card...its super fun! I hope you bought them that pink tree! :)
Great cards today! I'm diggin the "simple: look. I like that you mostly stuck to pti products. It makes them recreatable.

I adore the "Mr. & Mrs." card especially the little birds.
