It’s down to the wire and there are still lots of Christmas cards that need to be made.  So that means only one thing.  Keep it simple!

The puffy trees are satin cutouts from May Arts.  They make quick and fun focal points.  I will be able to easily duplicate these if needed.

A stamped sentiment on the inside, and they’re ready to go!  Now only a couple dozen more cards and I’m there!

(Tip:  Stamp sentiments before embossing.)

Thanks so much for dropping by today.

Happy Crafting!

  18. Hi Rainy,

    I would like to contact you and am having quite a time finding your email address. I wanted to ask if you sell patterns to any of the designs you have here and on Splitcoast. I have a customer who likes one of your wedding sets, and I’d like to help her make it. It is using the Stampin’ Up! set Season of Friendship and you have colored as well as embossed the leaves. Thanks so much for your assistance and Happy New Year to you. Jaye Catalano ([email protected]).
