These are simple set of Christmas cards. I am making a set of these for my FIL to send this Christmas, 32 in all. I used Imagine That!Designs by Kris Elegant Ornaments stamp set. I love this set. The beautiful silhouettes just pop right off the page. I used red/green card stock for the layering base. The ored/green ovals were cut from the rectangular layering base to save card stock. I printed the images and then used 4 different die cuts to be able to cut them all at one time. Each of the four have a different embossing folder. I just layered them up. The inside of the card has a sentiment from the Elegant Ornaments stamp set. It reads "Love came down at Christmas and His nae is Jesus.

These are all so wonderful I love the pop of colour from the coloured mats...they look great against the black and white of the rest of the card and of the images.
I have this stamp too and love it as well!

Beautiful cards, the effect of the black on white with a little colour is perfect. And making them all slightly different keeps it intersting, doesn't it.
I adore that stamp, and you used them so beautifully. Awesome set of cards- so pretty I may have to CASE them... : ) So pretty with the pop of red/green too. Congrats on your new DT!!!
Beautifully designed cards--love them!

Beautifully elegant cards, and I love your batch bake techniques, like gutting the mat to make the ovals, and cutting different shapes, so you can cut more at once, very useful tips :) xxx
What a nice batch of cards. They are very elegant.
So simple, but that image really makes them beautiful!! And the embossed background finished them off perfectly. Thanks for playing with CHNCC2. (sorry I'm so late in commenting)
