    Christmas cards and Lindy’s

    Fabulous Foiled Christmas Cards

    Summary of Christmas cards for 2016

    Since I started this website fairly recently I thought it to be best for this year to do a summary of some of the Christmas cards that I made (a “Christmas card for the men in your life” is not included in this post, see under Tab “Cards for Men” to find the post on that card or click http://www.makeyourlifecolourful.com/single-post/2016/12/17/A-Christmas-card-for-the-men-in-your-life) I will mention how to make a certain card and what materials I used.
