Okay, so I am not really ready to start making Christmas cards.  Because making Christmas cards is like eating potato chips; once you can’t just make one!  It is just SOOO early, but I have a lovely customer who is so excited about starting her cards and she even found an inspiration card on a fellow demo’s blog that I couldn’t tell her no.  Also, I realize that World Card Making Day is only one month from tomorrow, so I had better start planning.

Here are the measurements for this card:

  • Evening Evergreen 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 and scored at 4 1/4
  • Mint Macaron 1 x 4
  • Tidings of Christmas DSP 2 pieces 1 x 5 and 1 piece 1/2 x 5
  • Scraps of the Kraft and Soft Succulent for the Stars
  • Simply Elegant Twine 8 inches
  • Diamond Weave Ribbon 2 inches

This card is actually pretty simple.  As with most projects I started by cutting my cardstock and DSP.  Next, I embossed my cardbase, did my die cutting then finished up with my stamping and punching.

I attached the strips of DSP using Multipurpose Glue.  The sprigs are attached to the back of the Soft Succulent star with a touch of Multipurpose Glue as well.  The ribbon and twine are attached between the two stars with Tear & Tape.  Both the star and Merry Christmas greeting are attached with Dimensionals.

I hope you have enjoyed this first look at what we will be doing at World Card Making Day 2021.  If you live in the Raleigh area and would like to attend please contact me.  We would love for you to join us!  Live to far away for a live event or can’t make it October 2nd?  Now worries!  You can get this card and the others as Card Kits To Go!  You will receive everything you need to complete them except adhesive and stamped images.  Contact me for more details!

If you would like to make LOTS of this card (or one of your own designs) it is a perfect time to buy all the supplies as you will also qualify for FREE products during Sale-A-Bration now through September 3oth!  I would love to help you place your order!

Thanks again for letting me share!

Stay Safe & Crafty!
