Sugar Plum ACK - Part 7

I'm back with a couple more Sugar Plum Artful Card Kit (ACK - from HOTP) cards.  As with the last batch, I ran out of die cuts from the kit some time back, so am having to scrounge in my stash to find focals and embellishments so that I can use up the paper that came in the kit.

Card #1:  This first card makes use of the front of a card that I received a week or so ago.  I thought the dog was so cute!  And with the red collar, he was perfect to do with this red gingham from the ACK (and gave me a chance to make a card other than a Christmas card from this set!).  The red glimmer paper is from my stash.  Focal & mat were cut with Spellbinder's dies (Labels Four & Grand Labels Four).  The embossing folder used is an old standby - Swiss Dots from Cuttlebug.  The greeting is one I made and printed from my computer.  The bow is a die from a magazine freebie (Cardmaking & Papercraft December 2019 - set called Have a Holly JollyChristmas).

 Inside:

Inside is more of the same.

Card #2:

This second card also makes use of a card I received.  This time I cut the image out and glued it to the front of an embossed card base (embossing folder is 5X7 Entwined Holly from Crafter's Companion).  The greeting is from the ACK.

Inside:

Inside are scraps of paper from the kit, a label cutout from the kit that I stamped with a stamp from JustRite's Christmas Trimmings.  The little sprigs of holly were fussy cut from paper from my stash and glued in place.

These two cards bring my total so far with this kit to 22.
