Well, it was Rudolph challenge over at Sarn's and thought was making it okay but she accidentally closed it a day early, so I'm posting anyways..
Felt at first a bit sad especially as busted my boiler getting two dozen cards made, but still that is always the upside eh?:D

As I give some cards away as presents before Christmas, plus need quite few for myself, and had only done about 36 so thought had better put in extra effort..
Each year buy a set of these .. they are "Pass it on cards" and there are 25 in set for $4 and make fab card toppers. I like to have God's word on Christmas cards particularly.

Plus was using a NBUS Never Used Before Schtuff - made with stamp set had for ages (Sheena Douglas) never used - perfect for this. |

I like the dry embossing on the cardstock. The toppers are so lovely. Thank you for posting your beautiful art with us this week during our 156th challenge at Word Art Wednesday. Carole
Hi Shaz, beautiful cards, all of them. I particularly like the robins. And I'm chuckling at the idea of you 'busting a boiler' to get them done - what a picture that conjures up :) Hugs, Elizabeth xx
Lovely cards made from toppers. I had never used embossing folders that way but now I have a new ides. Love the bird cards and the background gives them a snowy feel for Christmas. Thanks and hugs.
Your cards are so special and sure to be treasured, Shaz! Thanks for sharing them with us at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge!
Holy Christmas, Shaz, these are all so brilliant!! You put me to shame with my simple ideas like plonking a reindeer in the middle and calling it done! I'm in awe of how gifted you are - and how productive!! Hugs, Darnell
Your cards are amazing, Shaz. And your words of encouragement mean SO much to me. I really want you to know how genuinely grateful I am that you share your wonderful creations with us each week. It means so much to me, and I can't say thank you adequately. Have a great week, and I hope to see you share with us again soon.
God bless you,

What a beautiful set of cards.I love the topper cards and what you have made with them. The birdies are very sweet too, and I am with you on liking a Christian theme to my Christmas cards, though I don´t always manage it.
I really followed your link from Annie´s smiles, so I read that post too. Plenty to smile at, and how wonderful to have those dear little fluffy plovers in your own yard. God´s creation never ceases to amaze me. Kate x
Wonderful cards, so elegant and such a good idea! The birds are real cute but I love the elegant scripture cards. Bravo! xx
Hi Shaz . . . so sorry for closing Rudolph Day early . . . never happened before . . . blame it on my age and a confused brain!
Still . . . at least you have a pile of lovely Christmas cards made now.
Hugs, Sarn xxx
Thought I should pop over and say hi Shaz, I don't know where my days go as mu blogging is so behind.
Hope you are keeping OK, still producing lovely elegant cards I see.
