A Quick and Simple Merry Christmas (or two)

I've been making some C&S style Chrimbo cards to sneak in some quick makes.  These two are slight variations on a theme.

Well, in truth the main difference is the snowflake and the base shape, so it's very 'slight'.

Oh and I trimmed the white panel on the second one so that the red backing card framed it a bit.  But otherwise, it's just a die cut sentiment, some twine, a snowflake and a pearl.

There's nothing remotely cute in sight, so even hubby approved for once!  It's so rare that he likes my creations, that it's probably safe to say that he'll be receiving one of these himself for Christmas this year! :0)

This project is to support the Q for Quick challenge at ABC Christmas Challenge.  Even making 2 of these was quicker than one of my usual coloured creations, so it definitely qualifies for the theme, although I do feel like I cheated a bit by not colouring an image!
