Christmas card making is in full swing, and I couldn't be happier. I love this time of year, and sending out handmade cards when I have the chance. The past few years have been ultra busy with all of the kids' various activities around the holidays, but I've actually had some time to get cards made! We'll see if I can make all that I need (I have a rather big list!), but for now, I'm about halfway through. Impressive, I know! ;)
I decided to use this stamp from the
Everyday Sentimentals - Love Is All You Need EZ Mount stamp set on one of my cards. Why not? It is quite versatile, and works perfectly for the holidays!
The key to making your own holiday cards is simplicity. You need to let go of those voices in your head that say this has to be the fanciest card you've ever made. Simple can be stunning, too! So I used scraps in my Christmas paper collection, which I save just for cards, to make it easy. A few sheets of perfectly placed paper adhered with
Collal Tacky Glue (wet glue helps you ensure perfect paper placement!), the sentiment adhered with
foam circles, and black bling makes a nice, simple card that will be perfect for anyone on my card list!
Head to the
Crafter's Companion store and grab some Sentimentals stamp sets. They're perfect for any occasion!
