Crafting all the way ♪
I’m dreaming of a white Christmas, With every Christmas card I
writemake. May your days be merry and bright, And may all your Christmases be white.
One of my favourite Christmas activities of the holiday season are making my own personalized cards! I love mixing up scrapbook paper and using my trusty martha stewart pen for the font. My favourite is the snowman one I did last year – isn’t he a cutie! Check out his rosy cheeks! Everything is handcut – even the little ornaments on the trees! I’m boycotting Silhouette… acutally no, I’m just too cheap! Tell me which one(s) are your favourites? Last year I was able to sell some, so I don’t have too many to show for, but I had about 5-6 of each. The new ones that I did this year are the striped “merry christmas” ones with the plaid heart & button – all the rest are last year’s. The silly one was a card I made for my twin – I forget what I wrote in the bubble though…Hope you guys like ’em! 🙂 One of my dreams is to open up an Etsy shop (before my boutique of course…babysteps!) – would you guys buy from me?

I also love to make my own cards, but I still have to learn a lot! yours look awesome in comparison!!!! I even have my own blog for them but they’re not as extraordinary!
Awwe thanks so much girl! 🙂 That means a lot to me! I really like your cards as well, the wedding one is my fave. Don’t be afraid to experiement with things – rip paper, mix patterns, make your own stickers, etc. ps: I love how your blog is written in spanish – maybe I’ll learn more spanish through your blog haha. 🙂
You’re welcome!!!! And thanks, that wedding card costed me… about two hours of work!!! 🙂
I honestly cannot remember the last time I got an actual Christmas card… must have been ages ago and that’s sad…. 🙁
