The Light the Way to the Holidays

Stampin’ Up! Christmas card with Merry Patterns stamp set and designed by Demo Pamela Sadler. Light the way for the start of the Holidays. See more cards at stampinkrose.com #stampinkpinkrose #etsycardstrulyheart

 

The Holidays will be here before you know it.  One of the traditions in my household as always been having candles.  Particularly on the dining room table.  This new stamp set, Merry Patterns, has beautiful candles and it is easy to make.  I just got mine in.  You are not stamping each candle separate.  So relax and enjoy this set. You will be cranking out Christmas cards so quickly you will be amazed.

I have a question for you?  Do you struggle with designs or are you short on time?  My cards are designed for the beginner to make simple quick cards.  Many times I offer PDFs with clear instructions how to make that card. My Countdown to Christmas is no exception to that.  You will find that information about it and other information under Updates at the bottom. So let me light the way and show you how easy it is to create your own cards.

Make a Unique Double Z Card

Today’s card fold ties to the card I made for Wednesday’s Blog Hop.  So today you will learn how to make the base of the card.  This card fold requires you to use Lots of Labels Framelits.  You will be using the two largest framelits.  Also, you will need a strip of cardstock 6″ in length. It can be 1 1/4″ to 1 1/2″ wide.  You will score it at 2 3/4″ and 5 1/2″.  It is best to adhere each piece together with Fast Fuse.

All products can be ordered through my DBWS which you will find by clicking here http://www.stampinup.net/esuite/home/pinkrose/products  Remember to check my stampinpinkrose.com for the blog where will see a completed card using this card fold.

You need to subscribe to my newsletter to get the Twelve Weeks of Christmas. You have already missed week one where different Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators have created unique cards, tags, and 3 D items.
