For the first two cards, I followed the sketch over at Jingle Belles...cutting the curved panels using my Lawn Fawn 'Stitched Hillside Border' dies, and adding some die cut snowflakes (cut using a Memory Box die, then coated with sparkle using a Wink of Stella pen, with an adhesive pearl in the centre).

- Clear It Out - Christmas Cards & Die Cuts
- Dream Valley - Blue
- Jingle Belles - Sketch

For the second two cards, I followed this week's Less is More sketch, simply cutting a pennant shape.
