I loved participating in the CCC07 last year (Christmas Card Challenge), and had a blast making ~10 cards a month ending up with enough cards to send to everyone on my Christmas Card List, with NO stress. Plus it gave me the opportunity to make several different designs. So here I am again for the CCC08. I made another "Buckle Card" for April using a different "scene" from Festive Favorites--this time the Reindeer. I included the view of the inside and envelope too. Enjoy! LM :-)

I really love this! I haven't done a buckle card yet. I always love when people also decorate the interior of their cards (one of my failings)..nicely done coloring job and layout on your card TFS

This is a well-thought-out composition: all the way from the envelope to the background dots and script on the inside. Great use of a buckle card. Love that the buckle strip is perfectly decorated with the team of reindeer.

Great job on this buckle card. I really like them. I love the how well the inside and envelope match everything too, not just pretty on the front. So creative! TFS!

Ohhh, wow, I have to put this in favs for Xmas (I refuse making Xmas cards in May, LOL) - I have this stamp set but never had the idea to use it for a "buckle" card!

Wonderful card. Someone is going to be very happy to receive this gem. I like the paper and the use of the set. Looks like lots of attention to detail.
