I've been a bit more organised this week not only with posting in What's on your Workdesk, Wednesday, but also lots of Christmas cards - with the help of MaryAnne. MaryAnne has very kindly shared some Christmas printables which you can find here. I've made some Father Christmas belt cards in the past and I absolutely love the simple but effective design of them - they are super quick to make and look wonderful.

| Tree and Reindeer design
I used a design from the Silhouette store to make the Reindeer Christmas card and you can see the Seasons Greetings on the mat - it was a bit tricky to cut and took a couple of attempts to get the correct thickness of paper/card but it cut like a dream in the end.

Thanks for taking the time to look around my desk and hopefully this week I'll get around to a few of yours. Have a good week, and happy crafting :)

By heck don't they look good! :) Actually I just love the effect of the simple circle over the embossing. Funnily enough I was watching some craft show or another on one of the shopping channels and I noticed that a new stamp set they were selling ALSO used the font I used for the circle text. In case you care, I think it would work well for sentiments - FoglihtenNo04, but there is also an 06 version that is a little plainer but still cute. I usually at least mention, if not link to, the fonts I use but I think I may have missed that out for these.
Thanks for your nice comment on my blog and so pleased you liked the printables!
