Holiday Card Making 101
With Christmas fast approaching, and the list of card recipients growing ever longer, it’s time for some Holiday Card Making inspiration! The Papertrey girls have been busy bees making some fantastic samples for you to imitate if you wish, or at least inspire you to start thinking of your own mass production card making time!
Here’s what I dreamed up this year using Dawn’s new Vintage Ornament set along with Nichole’s new Giga Guide Lines set both coming out tomorrow!
The bones of this card are super simple, and you can find all of the instructions HERE in this PDF that Nichole has created. She has also created a supply list like this for all of the other girls as well which will be available on her blog. This gives you the supplies for 25 cards, along with cutting instructions and directions. The sewing on these cards is of course optional! I hope this little taste of Christmas has you scheming about what kind of cards you want to make, or at least in what direction you want to go with them! Won’t you go and see what the other girls have done? You’ll be wanting to put on the Christmas music after tonight let me tell ya!

Beautiful colour combo Becky! I love the stitching and really like how you combined the two new sets.

I just love the layout and colors of your card. And I especially like the side orientation in the opening. Can You tell me if there’s a trick (or tool) to cutting the notch on the flag strips? They all looks so perfect…not sure if I could do that, LOL!

I absolutely love everything about this card!!! The colors are amazing and I think that you just sold me on the sets you used. Seriously, this card is perfect! Even if these weren’t my favorite colors
I would love everything about it.

What a pretty holiday card using non-traditional colors. They are very fresh looking. The stitching is my favorite.
