Christmas Card Blitz 1

I'm going to be showing you some Christmas cards over the next several days - hope you enjoy looking and find yourself inspired!

First of all, I was going through my blog feeds one day and saw THIS post on Amy's blog, Pickled Paper Designs. Something about the layout of the cards just really inspired me, especially how she used the vellum in the second card shown there. I have vellum and rarely use it but this is such an easy thing that gives the card that little extra "wow" effect!

I liked the layout so much, I've made several variations of it myself. So I'll be showing you those during the first few days of my Christmas Card Blitz

This photo just isn't very vibrant, doesn't do this new Wassail paper justice! It's by Basic Grey and I LOVE it! Such rich colors and designs! The stamp is from The Angel Company, and I used my new Labels One Nestabilities (Love those too!)


This card uses the Amelia collection by TAC, the Snow Dots Cuttlebug embossing folder, Labels One Nestabilities die, and 1/2" circle punch for the eyelet washers.

Come back tomorrow for a couple more variations of this awesome layout!

Hi!

I just love what you did with the vellum here. The cuts are so clean and similar. Is there a tool you used to make such a great tearing?

Love your samples with the vintage SOTM. I love the harvest bear so much! Aren't those offers from TAC the best out there?
