This first card was created using a Pine Branch die along with Creative Impressions Christmas Ornament Felt Shapes (63121). The Pine branch was adhered onto a white card stock panel followed by 2 ornaments. The bows at the tops of the ornaments were created with Creative Impressions Mustard Thin Twine. The word "Peace" was stamped at the bottom to finish the panel. Finally, the panel was adhered to a burgundy card stock mat , then to a patterned paper panel and finally to the card. The best part is that the patterned paper isn't even specifically Christmas paper. Look through your stash to find the perfect pattern!
Now for our second card: First I wrapped our Merry Christmas Twill Expressions Ribbon (80464) around the bottom of a white card stock panel to which I first added some red color around the edges. Then I once again used a pine branch die. The pine branch was adhered down to the panel over the Twill. Holes were punched over my pine branch and our Metallic Light Bulb Paper Fasteners (90655) were added. The "joy" sentiment was stamped, the white panel was adhered to a red panel, a patterned paper panel and finally the folded card.
Last, but not least, here is a card with no stamped sentiments as Creative Impressions Merry and Bright Ribbon Expressions says it all!
Again, starting with a white card stock panel, adhere our Merry and Bright Ribbon Expressions (80333) down twice, leaving a space in-between. Cut a piece of our Celery Leafy Vine (70220) and adhere to the space using our Red Mini Round Fasteners.(90109). Finally, create a poinsettia by using a White Glimmer Round (90907) a Red Medium Sheer Blossom (60603) and Sheer Leaves. Punch a hole with a paper awl and thread fastener to the back of the card stock panel.
Add red ink around the edges of the white panel, adhere to a red card stock panel, a patterned paper panel and finally to the folded card.
Easy Peasy! You still have several weeks before Christmas!
