It’s a Christmas card factory at my house this weekend and this Snowman Christmas card is a slight variation of one of my favorite Christmas cards I am making. Much earlier, I made this card. The snowman image is die cut from the Santa’s Workshop Specialty Designer Series Paper. Some of the sheets in this package have flocking on them which you might be able to see in this photograph of the snowflake on the snowman image. The red and white striped paper strip on the side of the card also has the flocking. The snowflakes are punched from the Santa’s Signpost Framelits Dies. Unfortunately, these products are no longer available due to their popularity, but maybe you already purchased them or you can use the idea with something else you have! The greeting is from Itty Bitty Greetings, a must-have stamp set if you ask me.
I’m making 10 cards of each design I choose because there are so many fun ideas! Actually, I could probably make cards from now until next Christmas from all the ideas I’d love to make! I posted this card because I only had enough of the background paper to make 9 cards! So instead, I chose this green paper, but I like it pretty well! Also, the snowman and elf are facing a different direction.
I have to say, I am LOVING having my Stamparatus® this year to make Christmas cards!! I can set up the stamp on the Stamparatus and stamp a bunch of images one right after the other without any concern of getting the image crooked or not stamped well, etc. If you don’t own a Stamparatus, put one on your Christmas list and order it in January during Sale-A-Bration! Then you will all set for next Christmas!
Here is my original card on which I just changed the designer paper. You can easily make variations of your cards even if you don’t run out of paper!
Which card do you like best?
