Keeping Christmas - March 2019

Well, it’s the 25th of the month so how about another Keeping Christmas card…the 3rd one this year, so far!

This year I seem to be leaning toward a CAS style; cards that are easy to make multiples of.

I had an assembly line going for this one. I stamped, die cut, and colored all the SSS Christmas Essentials berries with my Copic markers first. Then I stamped the sentiment on all the white card bases, and shaded them with a Copic marker. All that was left to do was to adhere a strip of patterned paper and pop up the berries with foam mounting tape. And to make the process a little more interesting for me, I just used several different patterned papers with the basic red and green Christmas colors.

Please be sure to check out all the fabulous inspiration for building your Christmas card stash at each of our designers’ blogs:
