I managed to make five cards for the soldiers I talked about earlier. My plan was to design one card and then duplicate it a couple of times. I was being realistic and limited myself to making a total of 5 of the same card. Do I need to say I got bored after/during the second one? LOL. So I let myself continue with whatever Christmascard I wanted and if I wouldn't make it on time it would be fine - at least I had two. But as I let myself do whatever I wanted I realized that the idea I had at first was really good and I continued making cards in the same style, but with different pre-colored images and embossed patterns. In the end I sent five cards that I was very happy with.
I wanted to make white cards, thinking of peace, but I didn't have any images of doves. I did however have beautiful white embossed cards and a couple of angelstamps. The thing I really wanted when thinking about these cards was that I wanted the soldiers to be able to personalize the cards. I gave up that idea, but while I was making the cards and putting tabs on them (so to speak ;) I realized that if I left them blank then the soldiers could personalize them that way. (Besides, I didn't have any good word/textstamp for the tabs). Ok, here's what I came up with in the right order:
