Here are the holiday cards I gave to my friends and family this year (I had to wait until after they had gotten them in order to share them with you):

The front of the card features two doves raised up on foam adhesive and my handwriting cut from paper.

The inside of the card features a "pop up" Christmas ornament.

And I always stamp the back of my cards to ensure the recipients know that they're hand made!

Back-wm
Those are stamps I carved ages ago and they have been very useful to me.

I also gave a few 100% unique cards:

StampedSnowflakes-wm

The branches on this card are shrink plastic! Isn't that fun?

Thanks for stopping by!
