Over the past 2 weeks I've had my Christmas Card class. Everyone stamped 10 cards, which took a lot longer than I anticipated! But I think they all still had fun, even into the late hours of the evening! Now that the class is over, I will show you what we did, but not all at once! You'll just have to keep coming back for more! Before I go any further, I just want to say that I rarely have an original idea, but I am very good at looking at other's ideas and tweaking them for my needs! That being said, I'm pretty sure none of these Christmas cards came directly from my brain! I think they are all a conglomeration of looking at Split Coast Stampers and lots of blogs! So if you see a card that you designed, please let me know and I'll give you full credit. I am just so thankful that stampers are willing to share!
This first one was a real favorite! It looks so much harder than it really is, thanks to the fabulous 5 Petal Punch! All you had to do was stamp 6 flowers, using the Ginormous Flowers set and then punch them out and layer. The little Handsome Hunter flower is punched with the Spring Bouquet punch (lots of little pieces of paper flying around with this one! - time to get out the vacuum...). Add a brad to the center and your Poinsettia is done!
And for this one I decided I would try using the Stampin' Up! wrapping paper on the card! Now I can wrap a gift and the card will match perfectly! This set is Merry, Merry. More circle punches - the less cutting the better, I always say! Of course, I did have to cut out the "Merry"...oh well!
If you like any of these cards and think you might want to make them to send to your friends and family, just contact me for a list of supplies!
