I hope you don't mind but I'm not done sharing Christmas cards yet...  I have about another 7-10 days worth for you.  I LOVE making Christmas cards.... and made about 80 different designs this year.  I put away my Christmas card making supplies on December 14th when I made a couple of last cards... an idea I had in my head.  Not to mention I received a couple of cards from people I wasn't expecting them from so I had to make a few more and pop them in the mail real quick :-)

*Iconic Christmas Blog Hop*

Welcome to the December Blog Hop with Scrap 'n Stamp Canada!  This month the team is playing the with Iconic Christmas dies from Concord & 9th.  This is a great set of small Christmas dies... I hope you'll hop along to see what each member of the design team did with these dies!

If you've been here before, you know I love snowflakes.  I was excited to see a snowflake in this die set... a simple one that could be cut out of a variety of papers.  For the hop, I decided to play with some holographic cardstock I had in my stash.  I cut a bunch of snowflakes and then started to play.  I created the first card and had some snowflakes left over so I decided to make another card as well!
