Santa Card

Have you started thinking about Christmas projects?  The Mini Catalog September – December goes live on Sept. 6, 2023 and has lots of inspiration for you.

In the meantime, here is a card to get your creative juices flowing.  I used one of the dies from the Basic Borders set to create the edge on the white cardstock. I think the die that I used was probably intended to be used for clouds.  The silver buckle was embossed with one of the dies from the Stitched with Whimsy set, and then I fussy cut around the embossing.

A Santa card without a special stamp set!

Accordion Fun Fold – Seaside Bay

When I was travelling this summer, I took along some of my retired patterned papers.  This card could be created with the current “Let’s Go Fishing” designer series paper and be equally pretty!

When the belly band is removed,  it opens up into lots of panels that can be decorated as you desire.  Here is how the inside of my card looks.
