Most of my basic Christmas Cards are hand crafted without any pre-printed toppers or any die cuts.
I was very "frugal" this year.  I cut long triangles of card and paper as Christmas trees, also used buttons and bows.
My "Special" cards have some die cuts on them using my Cuttlebug or GC, not a lot but some.
I decided ages ago to not use pre-printed toppers this year, I was getting so fed up of all the CDs that were being promoted.
The presenters kept saying that they were not just for this year but for years to come.
I have Christmas CDs mostly Joanna's but I keep forgetting who I sent what to the year before.
Sure as eggs is eggs I would send the same thing a second time round.........................
Mind you when you are thanked so much for the beautiful card you sent to a person you scored off your list, I really do not think they would even notice.
