Not only didn’t I get my Christmas card posts done in December, but I’m off to a slow start in the new year.  While I haven’t been posting, I have been making cards.  I made several using Echo Park’s Little Lumberjack.  I liked the colors and many of the prints and it was perfect for some masculine, outdoorsy themed cards.

I made 2 of each card – 1 to sell and 1 to donate.  I put the first batch in my antique booth and they sold quite quickly.  I ended up taking several from the set I had planned to donate out to my booth as well.  Unfortunately I forgot to get pictures first.  These cards are the few I have left.  The deer stamps are from Stampin’ Up.  I’m sure they were part of a set at some point, but I have no idea what set.

In keeping with the masculine feel, I kept the embellishments to a minimum.  The first card includes a punched parantheses border and a black Love from Lizi peel-off.  The second features a thin black ribbon tied around the plaid panel.  Everything is matted with black cardstock and the images are stamped with Versafine Onyx Black ink.

There are still a few sheets of paper left.  Based on how popular the cards were, I’ll definitely be making more.  I might have to see if I can pick up another Little Lumberjack paper pad or at least something with a similar look/feel to use with these stamps.
