Sneak Peek Christmas Cards

We had such a great time on Saturday that we had to offer a sneak peek Christmas card. I had Ann start the Christmas music and we had 3 generations of the same family all making cards.

The adults made 12 Christmas cards each while the 13 year old crafted with a Paper Pumpkin kit that we had on hand. I wish Ann had gotten pictures of her creations.

But we do have a picture of some of them making cards on Ann’s phone.

They made 3 of 4 different cards. Here’s one of the favorites.

And what makes it even better is that you can get some of the card making supplies free!

Here’s what we used to make this card that will be available tomorrow in our online store:

Sneak Peek Christmas Card Making Tip

We stamped off the Garden Green for the circle onto a piece of scrap paper before stamping it over the greeting.

There are several names for this.

Stamping off
2nd generation stamping
Off loading ink

All it means is that you ink up your stamp, stamp once on a scrap paper before stamping it onto your project. This is an easy way to get a lighter shade of your same color.

We’ll be offering more Christmas Card Stamp a Stacks over the coming months so you never have to sit alone and make your Christmas cards.
