My 2008 Christmas Card with matching gift card holder

This year I fell in LOVE with this card-CASEd from the new Fall Winter Stampin Up! catty. I made a very few minimal changes and voila! I have also made a matching tri-fold gift card holder, one of the tutorials from SCS. Scroll down for the gift card holder, and let me know what you think. (You can't see it well, but the Christmas tree is very sparkly-lovely really!!) http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/giftcardholder.php

Stuff I am doing this week:

1. Creating 5 different cards with the same essential layout and stamp set using different colors, papers, accessories to create COMPLETELY different looks ***did someone say, "challenge?"

2. Beginning my Christmas cards, CASED from the StampinUp! catty

3. Updating both my personal homepage ( http://janaaleman.com) and this blog
