You should have arrived here from our Swanky Stamper June's blog. If not, head on over Lori's blog to start at the beginning of the hop.
Have you started making Christmas cards yet? If you are looking for a clean and simple card, then you have come to the right place. I put together a couple clean and simple layouts for quick and easy cards. It seems like during the holidays there is less time for crafting and easy is the way to go! Especially if you need a last minute card.
The first card was made with the new Wreath Building Kit stamp set. This set is designed to create wreaths, but it really works well for so many different creations. For this one I stamped one of the leaves repeatedly with green ink and then went back and added some dots of red with a copic marker. Swap out the "thanks" and you could easily turn this in to a Christmas card or card for any occasion.
The next card features the new Poinsettas die set...but I used it as a snowflake. I received the die in the mail before Alma shared the set name and I first thought it was a snowflake die. With snowflakes in mind, I added a sentiment from the stamp set First Christmas and kept with the same layout as the first card. This one is vertical, but still CAS!
