This is When I Need Quick & Easy Cards
Is anyone else feeling like Christmas is coming up super fast? I think this is the time of year that I always start feeling a bit overwhelmed. To combat my overwhelmedness (is that a word?) I like to keep my card making quick and easy.
My card today is both easy to make and easy to duplicate so you an whip off a bunch in just a short time. All you need to make this card is some pretty paper and a simple sentiment. And if you really want to step it up, you can add a pretty embellishment or two.
Stampin’ Up! Beauty of the Earth & Heartfelt Wishes
To make my card, I used Stampin’ Up! Beauty of the Earth Designer Series Paper as the backdrop for the “Merry Christmas” sentiment from the Heartfelt Wishes Stamp Set. To step up my project I added a couple of the iridescent Wonderful Snowflakes.
Beauty of the Earth DSP is so beautiful and perfect for making seasonal cards. And I love the script font in the Heartfelt Wishes stamp set! This stamp set can definitely carry you through the entire year with messages of love and gratitude along with the holiday greetings.
Instructions for Today’s Card (supply list at end of post)
- Attach a 5″ x 3 3/4″ piece of designer series paper to a 5 1/4″ x 4″ piece of coordinating cardstock (in landscape orientation).
- Attach this to an A2 cardbase made from Stampin’ Up! Basic White Thick cardstock.
- Cut a 1″ x 5″ strip of Basic White cardstock for the sentiment.
- Stamp the “Merry Christmas” sentiment onto the strip of Basic White cardstock in a coordinating ink (I used Night of Navy).
- Attach a couple of Stampin’ Up! Wonderful Snowflakes in the upper left and bottom right corners of your card with mini glue dots (see image above for placement)
- Add the sentiment strip about an inch from the bottom of your card.
