Handmade Card Ideas for Christmas

Stampin’ Up! Christmas Cards – i Love Card Sketches 07
I’ve been really cranking out the Stampin’ Up! Christmas cards. What will I do once the holidays are over? I’m sure I’ll come up with something. 🙂 The inspiration for today’s homemade Christmas card came from this week’s card sketch at i Love Card Sketches. My son says the card looks like a Christmas present! […]
Ornamental Pine Christmas Card
In this Ornamental Pine Christmas card I used our Blendabilities to color over the white embossed branch and most of the pine needles. Using alcohol markers to color over embossing can eventually clog up the nibs of those more expensive alcohol markers and NOT something you’d want to do because you’d have to replace the […]
Homemade Christmas Card With Ornamental Pine

The patterned paper strips came from leftovers I had from the Nordic Noel Designer Paper collection, and were cut at 1″ x 3-‘1/2″ and glued along the bottom. I added some of the beautiful Real Red Satin Woven Ribbon […]
Letterpress Winter Snowflake Cards
Jane E., one of my team members, created these cute snowflake cards for our get-together last month using Letterpress Winter from the Stampin’ Up! Holiday Catalog. A bold set of photopolymer stamps you can really make a statement with, it’s very affordable, too. She added some Dazzling Diamonds glitter and rhinestones for some extra sparkle. […]
