Today I came across this very pretty card by tammytwet.
I love the idea of using the blossom punch to make a Christmas tree. So cool!
However, that card got me thinking - what other gems are in the gallery? What other neat/pretty/gorgeous/fabulous Christmas cards made with not-Christmas stamps are out there? I definitely do not tend to think outside of the box in this way, but would love to be inspired by those who do.
So link 'em up! What Christmas cards with non-Christmas stamps have you made or seen in the gallery?

I've seen one using the bird from the bird builder punch to make a pointsettia.

Here's an old one from 2007, but it's still one of my favs: Peas on Earth. It was inspired by a card by Dawn Griffith - I just turned it into a microslide ornament.
Backgrounders often make good Christmas cards - just team them up with traditional colours and a Christmas sentiment (couple of examples attached - one embossed velvet, the other gold embossing with metallic gel pen on coloured cardstock).
I used the bear, mountains and wooden sign from an outdoor/camping themed set and added a Christmas sentiment for a cute stair step card a while back.

That stair step one with the bear is adorable!

I do not have a picture but I'm sure each of you can imagine this... I used two different small size heart punches (you can use only one size) and I punched hearts. Turn them upside-down and layer them from the bottom up to make a Christmas Tree. I used various shades of green and some silver. Came out nice - but didn't take any pics back then.
