Time to make the Christmas Cards!
Christmas is just around the corner and here is an easy DIY Christmas card to make and share with friends.
Christmas 2019
This Christmas I wanted to get a jump on my card making. I have a lot of friends to whom I will be sending cards so I needed something fairly quick to put together yet still beautiful so as to leave a lasting impression. So today I am sharing a super easy Christmas card to get you off to a great holiday season and into the holiday spirit. I used the Stampin Up Merry Christmas to All stamp set along with the Feels Like Frost designer series paper. The instructions are below. Happy Crafting!
Materials and Supplies
STAMP SETS
INK:
- Night of Navy
EMBELLISHMENTS:
Tools and Adhesives
Paper Trimmer
Snail Adhesive
Multipurpose Liquid Glue
Stampin’ Dimensionals
Mini Glue Dots
The inside of the card looks like this.
I am not fond of “naked” insides, so I used a panel of Whisper White cardstock matted onto a piece of Seaside Spray cardstock. To keep it simple and reasonably priced, I used a sentiment and flourish from the same Merry Christmas to All stamp set in Night of Navy ink.
Instructional video below.
I so enjoyed spending time with Mom making dozens of this card to send out to all of our family and friends. I hope you enjoy making them too. Watch the video below to see how to piece everything together.
