Snow Swirled Christmas Card

Part of my prep for visiting my sister in Connecticut was bringing the supplies for her Christmas cards. I intended to finish them before going out but you know how things go. I only finished 10 out of 80.I had the card bases cut scored and circles punched. I also stamped the custom stamp on the inside and punched those as well. The custom stamp is from 3 designing women. Basically I didn't want to fly with the heavy punches. I brought all the embossing supplies and the stamps with me. She ended up helping me the night before I left to come home. Really we weren't procrastinating just that was the only open time to do it. The finished product is 3" x 6" and what I love about that size is you can get 4 cards out of a 12" x 12". Also I like that this size of card fits in a small office envelope.

Supplies:
Stamps: Snow Swirled and Headline Alphabet (retired) and custom stamp from 3 designing women
Ink: white craft ink
Accessories: 1"circle punch and scallop circle punch, white embossing powder

Christmas Card Class

I did this class two weeks ago so my customers could get a head start on their cards this year. You may recognize some of the designs from the catalog or the mini. I decided to use the great resources available to me provided by Stampin' Up's publications this year. The For you card was an idea given to demonstrators in our monthly magazine.The Joy card was designed by a fellow demonstrator. The Scandinavian card was taken from the mini catalog. The Snowflake card was an adaptation from the idea book and catalog. Every one made 3 of each card. We had a lot of fun and I even got home before 11 PM!
