Making Christmas Cards

I've been knee deep in Christmas card creation and wanted to share the different types of cards that I made.  I've been working alot with different stamping techniques, trying to get competent with the different methods.  I love the different techniques of creating backgrounds.  I used Colorbox pigment and dye ink as well as Close to My Heart, Stampin Up! and Ranger.  I must say that I like the Colorbox the best for overall general background making and Ranger Jet Black for Stamping images that need to be colored in later.  For messages, such as Greetings, I recently bought a VersaFine and oh my gosh, do I ever love it!  My greetings come out so much better.
