Gingerbread Foil ACK - Part 5

Previously, I'd made 11 cards from this kit.  Today's 8 brings the total to 19 - and I got 4 tags as well.  Today's post finishes not only the Gingerbread Foil ACK (artful card kit), but all my Christmas ACK's!  Now if I can just finish up the misc. card kits I have, I'll be able to justfy buying more! :)

Card #12 (above): In the picture, it's a little hard to see the sentiment "Cozy Winter Wishes" stamped in silver using a HOTP small stamp set called Mittens.  The white snowflakes are stickers from my stash, and the silver mat & border is also from my stash.  Everything else was from the kit - though the corner curlicues were cut apart from one of the die cuts.

Inside:

Card #13:

All elements except the sentiment are from the kit.  The sentiment is a sticker.

Inside:

Inside is more from the kit - with a stamped greeting (JustRite's Christmas Labels 22).

Card #14:

I've layered a lot of elements on this card focal.  Everything is from the kit EXCEPT the ribbon & the silver ribbon/tag shapes at the base of the focal.

Inside:

Once again, the elements are from the kit - except I stamped & embossed a greeting using a stamp from Christmas Labels & Trims (HOTP).

Card #15:

The background of this card was created using a Cuttlebug embossing folder called Kitchen Weave.  After embossing, I hit the raised areas with red ink.  The rest are elements from the kit - including the fussy-cut red chevron stripe.

Inside:

Inside I just have a strip of the brown patterned paper, and a couple die cuts layered on top of each other - all from the kit.

Card #16:

The background was embossed with a Cuttlebug embossing folder called Swiss Dots.  The sentiment was stamped (HOTP bulk stamp set), fussy cut, and layered on a mat of silver poster board.  Everything else was from the kit.

Inside:

Everything on the inside was from the kit - though cut and layered so it may not be easily recognized! :)

Card #17:

The border is a ribbon from my stash.  The sentiment was stamped using a stamp from JustRite's Holiday Cheer Ornaments set.  The rest is all from the kit - though not necessarily in the form you'd expect.

Inside:

Elements from the kit and a couple stamped messages (HOTP Naughty & Nice) complete the inside.

Card #18:

By the time I made this card, I mostly had scraps left.  Here I used paper scraps from the set, along with a snowflake die cut and a fussy cut banner - all from the kit.  The sentiment was stamped using a stamp from Christmas Tags & Trims (HOTP), and the snowman was a sticker from my stash.

Inside:

Inside are more paper scraps (layered for the bottom border), a fussy cut tag, and another snowman sticker from my stash.

Card #19:

With only a bit of brown & red patterned paper pieces left from the kit, I really had to get creative with this last card.  As you can see, I added a ribbon from my stash to the border.  The sentiment is die cut using a Spellbinders Happy Holidays die.  The stockings were die cut using dies from 9 Tiny Christmas Things & Shadows (HOTP).

Inside:

The present is die cut from the same HOTP die set as the stockings on the outside.  I added a fabric sticker (old one from HOTP) and scraps of remaining paper for the border.

Tags:

I used up most of the rest of the scraps on these 4 gift tags.  I added stickers, die cut reindeer (HOTP 9 Tiny Christmas Things & Shadows) and ribbon to complete the tags.  The tops were cut with a punch from Stampin' Up.
