Holiday Cards 2014 – Day 17

By Cards

Hi all,

We’re almost at the conclusion of the 2014 Holiday Card Series. The next few cards will be just some fun holiday crafts I have created this year in my craft room.

This card was created using my Silhouette cutting machine and features 4 panels with cut-out circles that move with the stretch of the card. When closed it looks like a regular card. I didn’t add a sentiment to this one, I love the simplicity of just the ornament designs. It still fits into a regular size envelope and can be mailed quite easily. I love that it’s just another take to a lovely holiday card for friends or family.

See you next time for Day 18!

Holiday Cards 2014 – Day 8

By Cards

Hi all,

Welcome to Day 8 featuring a holiday presents garland via papers from Basic Grey.

I’ve got to say I absolutely LOVE this card for the quality of materials it incorporates. The red card base is such a nice thick material that is super sturdy and can be handled roughly in the mail but still maintain it’s structure. The banner is popped up on dimensional on a wood grain background that is so subtle you may even miss it if you look too quickly. Also, notice how the garland is actually stitched together!? So many little details…this is truly a card that was a wow-factor in person.

Supplies:

Card Base: Simon Says Stamp Card Stock

Wood grain: Paper Place white woodgrain

Presents garland: Basic Grey

Misc: white gel pen and adhesives

Holiday Cards 2014 – Day 7

By Cards

Hi all,

I’ve a snowman trio and another circle card for you today!

This card came together rather quickly and is easy to mass produce. The snowman trio is an element that I purchased while on Thanksgiving break in Houston, Texas. As soon as I saw them I knew they’d make for a great card!

The coordinating papers are from American Crafts Merrymint collection & were cut using silhouette studio. This cutting machine of mine is really paying for itself this season. It makes for some quick and easy to assemble cards.

Here’s how I put this one together once I had all the pieces:

Supplies:

Card base: Neenah Desert Storm Environmental Cardstock

Patterned papers: American Crafts Merrymint 6×6 collection

Misc: White gel pen, Snowman trio embellishment

Today’s card features some quick digital cuts made on my silhouette sd cutting machine. This type of card is a prime example of a card that takes more time to conceptualize then actually create. Once the cuts were made, it all came together so quickly!

Here’s how I made it:

Supplies:

Cardstock: Neenah Desert Storm Environmental Cardstock and Bazzil frost white

Snowflake: American Crafts 6×6 holiday stack

Misc: Tag, banner and brown pen
