I made five of each of these two designs for the monthly Christmas/Holiday card challenge. These deceptively simple cards feature die cuts and stamped greetings. The angel, Christmas ornament and wreath are all included in the Cricut Expressions “Joys of the Season”. I used both solid and designer print card stock to make these cards. The wreath is a multiple part image and I cut the different pieces from several colors in the print.
The angel cards are made from a designer card stock. The wreath cards have a panel of the same designer card stock on a solid card. The wreath is mounted on a Christmas ornament cut slightly wider than the wreath. The ornament and some of the wreath leaves are also brushed with various shades of blue and green.
The angels are cut from white card stock, stamped in light blue with a lacy flourish and the edges brushed with the same blue ink. The ornaments were cut from a blue-gray and also brushed with the same light blue. Inside each of the cards is a white panel stamped with the greeting, “Wishing you the Merriest Christmas and all the best in the New Year.”
Some of the cards are embellished with a white snowflake – edged border. On card was decorated with a poinsettia also cut from “Joys of the Season”. All of the cards are topped with a bow.
