Yup, just about two dead cards!! I'm not really in love with the configuration or balance of either, but I put time in and here they are!! I used lots of old SU background stamps and one from Stampabilities (had to dust them off Thanking gracious Pat Smethers for sending me home from CA with her oak leaf punch

I like them both in their subtle coloring!! The oak leaves look great!

Wow, both are so beautiful!! I love the elegant style and I'm really struck by the button and Christmas foliage.

Now this is some fab stamping - I love to see different stamps used to make backgrounds, it's something I'm not good at. Wonderful sponging to bring out the richness and vintage look of these colors. And I love that little sprig of Christmas foilage with the button! Michele, these are both beautiful!

Oh, I just love these colors, and your cards look so rich!! I love the Jesus in the manger. I'm starting to get quite the thing for collecting Nativity scenes.
