Christmas Cards

Here are some of the Christmas Cards I made this year.

There is a great tutorial with instructions in the CTMH TV section of my website, under the "Crazy for Cards" episode. The instructions show you how to make 20 cards like this, with each one being a little unique by using 10 sheets of cardstock and 5 sheets of patterned paper.

I used the Merry and Bright stamp set but in the instructions, they use the Evergreen set.

This pattern would work with many different papers and stamps - great when you want to make a batch of cards.
