My first card is another from the Hobby House pre coloured image card series that I posted a few days ago. Same DP (First Edition) and border trim (K & Co), just a slightly different embellishment design.
The second card is another one made at Langley Stampers Club. The die cut like butter and just slid through the gold mirri card. I saved the center castoffs from the snowflake rings and thought I would punch them into snowflakes for future use. Mirri card is so expensive that I hate to throw any of it away!
Since that is the last of my 2016 Xmas cards, that means I had better get to work creating new ones for 2017! I have so many new Christmas themed dies and stamps that I am looking forward to use. I am going to try to use my new stash on all my Xmas cards this year.

Pretty cards and like the look of the snowflake die. Can't wait to use my new stuff too. Happy new year and see you next Rudolph day xxx
Two lovely cards Mo, such a sweet image and pretty papers on the first one.
The second one is so elegant in red and gold - good idea to save the Mirri card cut outs for future use.

Those papers are so pretty Mo, I liker all the alternative Christmas colours but so often find I go back to the traditional ones.

Beautiful cards, Mo xxx
Two really beautiful cards Maureen. The Hobby House image is so sweet and a very good idea to save your mirri waste! Have fun with your new dies. Barbxx
These are wonderful cards! Great job!
Two very different looks. But both feels traditional. The first very cozy and the second elegant. I haven't seen this snowflake die before, it's lovely.
Beautiful cards Maureen! I so love that first card, the image is so sweet and I love that background paper. The second card is very pretty too, I am in love with that die on it! Hugs, Brenda
Two wonderful cards Mo and a great image on the first card and lovely papers.
Love the snowflake rings against the red card.
We have just had new store opened very close to me and it sells 10 sheets of Miri card - 5 gold and 5 silver for £1.99 and it is great it is called B&M and it what we would refer to as a "cheap shop". They also do a pack of 10 sheets of lovely glitter card, various colours for £1.99 and that is lovely too.
My NY resolution is not buy anything Christmas related this year as I have lots of stuff I have not used yet.
Hope all is well with you and looking forward to the first RD of 2017.

These are so pretty and I love those corner adornments on the first card. Well done!
Two lovely cards Mo, I love the cute image and festive backing paper on the first one, but my favourite is the red and gold one. What a gorgeous die that is.

Both these are just gorgeous! Love the cute image on the first one and the die cuts on the second are fabulous and look so cool in the Mirri card on the red. xxx
Aw two gorgeous cards Mo, well done, hope you're mending nicely, pray so. Sending warm sunshiny summery hugs from Downunder.
Thanks for sharing your reds and gold inspiration, lovely!

Two beautiful cards, Maureen. It's hard to pick a favourite, I love them both. xx
Both cards are beautiful, but those snowflake rings are amazing! Only using new stuff on this year's Christmas cards?!--I could never do that, but I do want to use my unopened stash!
Oh my goodness that bird with his bird house is so so cute...I do have a thing for birds and their houses ;)
The foil card is very pretty and good tip to keep the centres to use for punching...I would do the same thing, don't like to waste :)
