I don’t know about you, but I make a TON of Christmas cards to send as well as hand out. Although postage stamps continue to rise in cost (sigh:(, I look at Christmas cards as my gift to family, friends, church family, service workers, and those who help me all year. It’s a relatively small investment with a big effect, so I budget accordingly so I can purchase those forever stamps.
All the Christmas cards I design mail for a single forever stamp. That is my personal non-negotiable. I do make some really flash cards for those super special people, but I mostly make quick and easy cards because of the sheer volume I produce.
The simple, elegant card above was part of my Holiday Catalog Product Shares and Craft Along. I host these “events” with each new catalog whereby I offer for purchase a portion (usually 1/4 pkg) of all the new papers and ribbons + project packets to start using all those new crafty goodies. Make sure you are subscribed to my emails so you get plenty of notice to join my next one in January: http://bit.ly/sweetstampernews
My simple, elegant Christmas card is demonstrated on this video. Seasons of Elegance Designer paper is aptly named and makes quick work for really elegant cards. Quick and beautiful–yes, please!
