Wishing all my friends, blog readers and customers a Very Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year, and all the best for 2014.
These are my quick and easy Christmas Cards that will be going out to my customers and fellow Stampin' Up! Demonstrators in the next few days. Enjoy, have a lovely holiday time and I look forward to catching up with you in the New Year.

Gorgeous Grunge

Just the name is exciting! It is one of the new stamp sets in Stampin' Up!'s new catalogue.

I had a play with these recently and had so much fun. 

I have used some washi tape it 2 and the new set 'Tape It' in 2 of the cards. Can you tell which is which? The top two have washi tape. 

A hint - if you are stamping a sentiment or other on washi tape, it is best to use a Staz-On ink as a normal dye ink will rub off and smudge. The last one might look a bit messy, as the greeting picked up the outline of the rubber. I am sure there is a technical term for it but I can't think of it!. And that is where the grunginess of these stamp sets come into there own, we can stamp a grid or a blob on top of the mistake!
