Hello! My recent post about getting back into my creative space became a reality yesterday. After spending a lot of the day cleaning (yikes!!), I finally cleared my table enough to start making some Christmas cards. I also rediscovered a package of card bases that had the cutest holiday patterns on them. I really didn't want to cover the base, and honestly was looking for a quick way to make some cards, so I dug out a Hero Arts Merry Christmas stamp and Wacky Wishes by SU, pulled some inks to match and got busy. Super simple cards that still look cute.
Added a little linen thread bow to dress this up!
A little layering on these to make
the sentiment stand out!
I have to confess that I don't actually remember buying these bases... Yeah... Have I mentioned recently that I have a craft supply hoarding problem?! I'm wondering if these weren't a prize from a crop or a gift from someone because this isn't something I would ordinarily buy. I guess this is just another reminder that I don't really need to shop for new items; I just need to go through my stash and discover treasures that are already here!! You really never know what you'll find if you dig deep enough!
I am so happy to be posting again and look forward to sharing more creation and inspiration soon!
Way to go whipping up so many cards! I like to believe that this year more than ever people will love to receive mail, especially handmade cards :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the card, Margaret :) I hope your family had a nice Christmas.
