Christmas 2010 Cards

As I've stated before, I've been so unmotivated to make cards for the past month, but my mojo is starting to come back now. YAY!

I am posting the Christmas card I made this year. I decided I wanted to do a book theme this year. I knew EXACTLY which book I was going to design my card after. I was read this book for the first time in first grade. It still captures my heart every year. I share my love of this book with my mom, who gives me a silver bell every year. You figure out the book yet? It's the Polar Express!



Here is my take on it!:


The card size is: 5.75 x 3.5 inches when the card is closed.
"Believe" is from Songbird with a shadow, each letter is .96 inches high and are welded together.
The loop-de-loop is from Martha Stewart, the bells I got at Michaels, and the twine I got from Papertrey Ink.

And the inside:


The quote is from the last page of the book. I used DJ Inkers font (www.djinkers.com) and printed out the quotes on postage labels.
