Day 3 of the 12 days of Christmas

Hello! If you've come from Nancy's Blog you're hopping in the right direction...if not, head to Emma's Blog to start at the beginning! Today I have super quick and easy cards! These are 4.25 x 4.25 cards so they fit in a regular envelope. I used the XL label dies and stamped the XL Label Border of snowflakes onto it. I used the new seasonal distress inks to add color. And I stamped the sentiment from the All Around Christmas  set onto the Curly Label Die. Voila, cards done! :) That's it for me.....

***12 Days of Christmas Give Away Alert***
To qualify for ALL the AMAZING giveaways for the next 12 days, you must comment on every blog in this hop! You will have until Tues, Dec 13th @ midnight to have all of your comments in! VERY IMPORTANT, PLEASE LEAVE A WAY FOR US TO CONTACT YOU IF YOU ARE ONE OF THE WINNER'S!
