Festive Friday - Southwest Christmas


For this week’s Festive Friday card, I thought I would make a Southwest-themed Christmas to include in my "ongoing" cowboy - western - Southwest request.. And the stamps to use for the job are two of my favorites - Animal Spirits Cactus and Petite Poinsettia Stamp Set from Heartfelt Creations.
These cards are actually super simple with mainly layered poinsettia leaves and a cactus.. Super easy and you can actually mass produce - yet vary the card - by different paper and placing the pieces in different locations.  Embellishments are embossed in copper or gold for that extra Southwest festive flair.
Enjoy!

  2. I love the stamps you used on these cards. I've never seen anything like them. I am really homesick for the desert now.
