Christmas Card Ideas using Work of Art Set

Even though it's June, it's never too early for me to get a jump on my Christmas cards.  I tend to make a variety of Christmas card because after making 20 to 25 of the same card, I usually get a little tired of it and I'm ready to move on to another style.  So, I started playing this past weekend with various sets to get my Christmas cards started and what I realized is that even though there may not be any specific Christmas sets in the Annual catalog, there's no limit to creating Christmas cards with the sets that are there.

And, I also remembered that the Holiday Carryover Flyer still has several Christmas sets and coordinating products still available for purchase!  Yippee! These products are available until August 27th. 

Below are several examples of Christmas cards that I made using non-Christmas stamp sets.  I'd love to hear your thoughts and feedback!  Which one is your favorite?
