Custom Order Snowman Christmas Cards

It’s only March but I just completed my first custom order of Christmas cards for the year. Last year’s recipient of this Christmas card (please scroll down to card #3) liked it so much, she ordered 10 cards just like it to send out to family and friends at the end of the year.
Thanks for taking a look and happy crafting!

Nestabilities Shaped Card

I had always wanted to make a shaped card and with my Spellbinders Nestabilities it couldn’t have been any easier.

The hedgehog as well as the butterflies and title are clear stamps from the Penny Black set “Wonderful Day“.

I stamped the butterfly on the outside of the card twice, adhered the one I had previously cut out using mounting foam, decorated the inside of the card with coordinating paper and an additional butterfly and done was my first shaped card.

Now all that’s left to do is decide who to give this card to :).

Hope you like it and thanks for visiting my blog.

Easel Thank You Card

My first attempt at an easel card: I made this easel thank you card for my parents who sent us a package filled with chocolate and other German goodies.

The hedgehog is one of my favorite stamps from the Penny Black clear stamp set “Bubbly” and the title is my new Penny Black title stamp called “gratitude”.

I had a lot of fun making this card and will definitely make some more easel cards in the future.

Thanks for taking a look at my card. I would love to hear what you think about it.
