Day 1 - Home-made Holiday Cards

Our first project comes from Design Team member Julie Boeck. A card is the easiest way to send your Holiday Cheer through the mail and nothing says you care like spending the time to personalize it for a friend, family member or special someone. There are endless patterns and possibilities, so grab some simple supplies and get started!

Here are a few of Julie's ideas to get you inspired!


"A Wish..." card:
Fancy Pants Christmas Magic papers, Maya Road Tree, chalk ink (for tree trunk), Making Memories label, Stamp from Hero Arts, Making Memories alpha stickers, Gold metallic dot from Hero Arts.


























"Holiday Wishes" card:

Hero Arts stamp, Hero Arts gemstones, Martha Stewart border punch, Fancy Pants Christmas Magic papers, Bazzill Kraft cardstock.




"Honor Christmas" card:
Fancy Pants Christmas Magic paper and transparency, Vintage McCall's pattern children, Gary M. Burlin and Co. star brads, chalk ink for edges.
