Create your Christmas cards early this year and don’t say “I ran out of time and didn’t sent Christmas cards”. Let me share 3 tips so that won’t happen.
Tip #1
Starting October 4th, I will sent out 12 weekly email titled 12 Weeks of Christmas to email subscribers. These emails will consist of 1 project (cards, gifts, tags and wraps). There will be a supply list for each project and instructions so that you can create these projects. But you need to be on my email list by October r4 at 1;00pm.

Tip #2
Each year, I run a Christmas card class. We make 8 cards – 2 cards of 4 different designs. This class happens November 16th – 18th. There are 4 classes to choose from so there should be 1 that you could attend.
Schedule – Thursday, November 16th, Friday November 17th and Saturday November 18 starting at 12:30 pm. On Friday November 17th, there is an evening class starting at 6:30pm.
Don’t miss these classes. Check out the details on this class and you can sign up by going to this LINK.

To get your creative juices flowing, here is a Christmas card that you can recreate.

A Few Details
- Ink the one of the sentiment stamps with Crumb Cake and stamp a number of times on the Crumb Cake card base.
- Die cut 2 of the snowflake background from Cherry Cobbler cardstock.
- Die cut 2 snowflakes from Whisper White card stock. There is a border on both of these thinlits so you can determine how much you want below the snowflakes. Adhere the snowflakes to the snowflake backgrounds.
