You may be wondering why I am posting a Christmas card in April. You see, I am doing the 2008 Holiday Card Challenge on splitcoaststampers.com. Every month, I make 10 cards so that I have a nice shoebox filled with cards by the time the holiday season rolls around.
I got the Holiday Blitz stamp set a few weeks ago, and I thought it would be great for quick and easy cards, like this one. The color combo was a great suggestion from scraptitude.com. The images were stamped on 1-1/4″ by 1″ Whisper White rectangles, and the top corners were punched with the tag corner punch. The small tag punch was used to create the mats.
The saying was punched out with the Word Window punch and attached to the card with red gingham ribbon. Quick and easy, because I had to make ten of them in a short amount of time!
Thanks for stopping by!
