Good Evening, Everyone! I created these Christmas cards today. . .again, trying to get rid of my scrap pile and I'm doing a good job so far. A great way to get rid of scrap designer papers and cardstock is to punch them using a sqaure punch and creating gift boxes. Just top it off with a ribbon and whala, that's it! This is a fast and easy way to create a design for Christmas and Birthday cards! No stamping was done on this card except for the sentiment. Stamping the sentiment was faster than looking for a sticker that matched the colors of my card.
Card Details: K&CO Designer Paper, Provocraft Holiday stacks, Making Memories eyelets, 1 1/4 square punch, organdy ribbon, stitches created by sewing machine, SU Cardstock: Pretty in Pink and Old Olive, SU Old Olive ink, Inkidinkado Holiday Stamp set
I made these three blue Christmas cards because I wanted to use up my fat pile of blue cardstock and one of the scrap designer paper that's been sitting in my scrap pile. I also wanted to use up an opened pack of stickers that has been sitting in my scrap pile for 3 years. . .yup, 3 years. I have a lot of open packs of left over stickers waiting to be used.
Card Details:
Stickopotamus Vellum Snowflakes Sticker, Organdy Ribbon, CB Embossing Folder, Stickles Glitter, Provocraft Holiday Stacks, SU Cardstock: Bashful Blue, Ballet Blue, Whisper White, SU Ballet Blue ink
