Fun Frugal Cards

My stash of Christmas paper (especially scrap pieces) is crazy.  To say I have a plethora of it is an understatement.  And much of it is up to 10 years old.  So I have been trying to use up some of those pieces.  I don't want to look at them for too many more years!

Both of these cards are very basic CAS card.  I printed out a few pre-colored poinsettias from the Doodle Pantry Poinsettia set then fussy cut them.
I love the gingham ribbon on the first card - last little piece of this color in my ribbon scraps.  Of course, I have no idea where I purchased it but I need to look for some more.

How are you coming with your Christmas cards?

Thank you for looking and thanks for taking time to comment.

 Timeless Tuesday - fussy cut

    This is beautiful, Marhsa. Another stunning card that I thank you so much for sharing. It's wonderful to have you play along in our challenges, and it's very appreciated. I trust that by now you've heard from the sponsor regarding the prize you won at WAW. If not, be sure to let me know. Thanks for sharing, and may God bless your week!
