Today I have my final set of cards to share, all pretty much following the same design, and using up bits of Maja Design papers left over from various other projects. They are small, the finished cards are just 4 x 4".
All of the central images were edged with Stampendous Aged Silver embossing powder, love the effect that gives and if you do a whole batch at the same time it goes quite quickly.
Well, that's it, all done and dusted and in the post to their recipients and I look forward to getting on with some different things.
I have one more design team project coming up before Christmas and then shall take a blog break until closer to the end of the month.
Hope you are all having a good week and manage to carve out some time for yourself, - I shall be off for some cookie baking....
Thanks for your visit like always!

A beautiful set of cards Astrid, they may be small but they are packed full of interest and beautifully designed! Hugs, Anne xx
Another gathering of vintage beauties Astrid, I always feel so relieved when I have finally finished mine. The images you have used are truly timeless and I would never tire of looking at each and everyone of them. I'm sure those cookies looked and tasted just as good.
Warm Hugs Tracey xx

Another set of beautiful cards in your amazing vintage style! I love how you keep them flat for posting and the die cuts you used add such pretty detail 😁. I may have to look into getting a die cutting machine, I've been holding back as I'm not sure how much I would use it. The Stampendous Aged Silver embossing powder frames those lovely Christmas images perfectly too, I love it! (Did you use an embossing marker?) I hope you are having a lovely weekend! We've just got back after visiting family, we had a great time and with lots of travelling involved so it's nice to be home ...lol 😉. Happy Sunday! J 😊 x
Beautiful collection of cards Astrid. Love the vintage style and you're putting me in the mood to use some of my patterned papers that seem to have got forgotten recently. Happy creative week, Angela xXx
OMGosh, your cards are amazing Astrid! I mean truly beautiful! I would love to just sit and watch you create these, each is more beautiful than the last!
Well done you!

These are such wonderful cards with a beautiful design! Even though they are 'flat' for easy mailing (which is always a plus at this time of year) they have such wonderful visual dimension and even a bit of texture with those sweet drops and stunning embossing. What treasures they are, that will be cherished by their recipients! Big Christmas hugs!
Hi Astrid! These 4 x 4 cards are perfect - love this size. I've enjoyed all your Christmas art - thank you for sharing it with us. :)
Very nice your blog and article,I like your good project!
