Baubles and Bows

Welcome back, everyone. I don’t know about you, but today was a Monday disguised as a Tuesday — whew! But luckily I worked ahead in anticipation of a tight schedule today.

This week, we’re making clean and simple Christmas cards for my holiday mailing list. Today’s card combines a little old and some new to create this festive design as we pair up the retired Take a Bow paper with the Christmas Tags & More paper pack.

We get started with a base of Crumb Cake and use a sheet of the retired Take a Bow paper to serve as our focal panel base. I chose the sheet of ornaments from the Christmas Tags & More paper pack as the focal panel. I added a bow of gold trim to dress up the center ornament. And from there we’re just adding a sentiment and some embellishments. The sentiment from the Greeting for You ephemera pack sits on top of a small panel of holly and ivy paper with a sprig of holly and ivy on the side to coordinate. This are all popped up with dimensionals to draw our eye to the sentiment section. A few Old Olive glitter sequins in the corner add the perfect pop of color and sparkle.

This is another no-stamp design you can turn out in five minutes or less. And when you’re pressed for time to get those holiday cards in the mail, that’s the perfect answer to a more personalized holiday greeting!

The kiddo has a basketball game tomorrow, but I’m hoping I’ll be able to steal a few minutes to make and share another fun clean and simple holiday card with you!
