YES! It’s true! 12 weeks of Christmas starts TODAY!

That’s right……that’s right…..I said it! We have 12 weeks until Christmas!!!!  …. that’s the sound of you passing out because we haven’t even carved our pumpkins, or Trick or Treated…..heck, we haven’t even sent our Columbus Day cards yet!!!

It’s ok- I got your back!  During the 12 weeks of Christmas, I post a holiday item once a week.  I ‘ll have a full color picture and will tell you exactly how to make it!   Sometimes it will be a card…..sometimes it will be a gift giving idea. 

We’ll start off slow with this cute little Christmas card. 

  • cut 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 Real Red cardstock (fold in 1/2 to make card)
  • cut 5 1/4 x 4 Whisper White cardstock- stamp sentiment in Real Red ink and attach to card.
  • punch out 1 inch circle from piece of Wild Wasabi cardstock- then punch 2 3/8 scallop circle around 1 inch hole.
  • punch out 1 inch circle from another piece of Wild Wasabi cardstock- punch scallop circle around 1 inch hole.  Sponge both scallops with Wasabi ink.
  • punch 1/4 inch circles from Real Red cardstock (9 total)
  • layer small scallop on top of large scallop and attach to Whisper White card.
  • attach “berries” to wreath
  • tie bow out of Real Red 5/8 grosgrain ribbon…..attach to card using large glue dot (or snot dot as my kids call them)

Cute, Quick and Simple…….enjoy and be sure to check back for next weeks project.
