Who doesn't love getting cards in the mail? I sure do. It's always wonderful to get happy mail and not bills. But when the card opens to a surprise inside, wow! Joy, happiness and good thoughts all rolled into one handmade card.
That's what you pack into an envelop when you send a handmade card. You send your love, a piece of your heart and a lot of good wishes. That's mighty powerful.
I made two tri-fold cards that open up to a delightful inside surprise.
The first card features one of my favorite designs from Creative Embellishments, Mr. and Mrs. Snowman.
These are the chipboard pieces I used on the cards in today's post.
My paper choice for both cards is from Maja Design - "It's Christmas Time" 12x12 collection.
This is a classically beautiful collection with an olde time appeal.
I dabbed white paint onto the chipboard Mr. and Mrs. Snowman set and
Chipboard Snowflakes with a sponge, then lightly sprinkled
Stampendous - Frantage Aged Ivory Embossing Enamels and heat to set the embossing powders.

Here is the second tri-fold card. This is also made using from Maja Design - "It's Christmas Time" .
The cover of the card was created by using both chipboard tress from Creative Embellishments - Very Merry Christmas chipboard set.
I have a series of images below showing the simple beauty of the chipboard tree design that has been glued together.
