I think that I am addicted to swap-bot but it forces me to get an advanced jump on my Christmas card designs.
Here are a couple of the cards that I sent out.
The first card is a based on a series of cutouts that I had done by a friend in Hong Kong. I am always interesed in how other cultures view Christmas. The inside of the card is a printed mulberry paper with silver and gold flecks. The back of the card has my new hanko and my label.
The second card is based on an embossed velvet paper. I take some paper backed velvet and emboss it with a iron. Every season, I always develop an alternate colored card. My swap partner loved purple and snowmen. So this card is a multi-matted card using the embossed velvet and the snowman image.

Russ. I am drooling over all your papers and pictures from Japan (oh! the craft stores!) and am admiring your snowflake swap! Thanks for sharing them fellow swap-bot addict! ;-)
I love the sentiment inside this card.
