I don’t believe it, but it is time for the 12 Weeks of Christmas 2024 holiday emails! What is that? Every year, as a thank you to my mailing list subscribers, I send out a special newsletter every Wednesday with one exclusive holiday idea per week!

We start with Christmas cards for the first four weeks. Next, we do gift ideas or home decor. We do gift wrap, bags, and tags ideas for the last four weeks. That covers a lot of the inspiration you will need for holiday crafting! And what’s more fun than holiday crafting?!

If you already receive my weekly stamping newsletters on Tuesdays, you don’t have to do anything. But if you do not, then sign up in the red box on the right here on my blog or on the pop-up for my mailing list and you will also get the special 12 Weeks of Christmas holiday emails every Wednesday. This will be a separate email from the weekly Tuesday email.

Each Wednesday you will get a new holiday idea, not seen on my blog or social media. You will have a photo and all the instructions to make the card, gift, or wrapping.

What is amazing is that the holidays get here really soon as we go through these 12 weeks of emails! Right now we can’t believe it, don’t want to believe it, but it’s true! Time to decorate and craft for fall and Halloween, then Thanksgiving, and then Christmas. It all happens so fast. I’m happy to provide some ideas for you that will make holiday crafting fun and easy for you!

If you have a friend who might be interested in holiday craft ideas, please tell them they are welcome to sign up too!

It all starts this Wednesday, October 2nd at 1:00 PM Central Time so sign up before then!

Let It Snow Designer Paper Christmas Card

Let It Snow Designer Paper Christmas Card

Someone said three months from today it will be Christmas so you might want to start thinking about what Christmas cards you want to make, like maybe this Let It Snow Designer Paper Christmas Card. I would add, besides being three months until Christmas Day, I would add that in three months from today, it will all be over with! The cards made and mailed (hopefully!), the presents bought, wrapped and possibly given, church services attended, Christmas cookies baked (usually not until after at my house!), parties attended, Christmas meals planned and eaten, except for Christmas Day dinner. SO….we have way less than 3 months to work on all our craft projects and cards to send and give!

To help you out a little bit, beginning next Wednesday, one week from today, we are going to start the “12 Weeks of Christmas” email campaign! Every week for 12 weeks I am going to be sending you a FREE holiday project that you can use to make your holidays easier and more festive! Please note, however, the only people who are going to receive these FREE projects are the people who are on my Mailing List. If you are NOT on my mailing list, you will not receive these special holiday emails.

Name: 

For this card, I used a card base of Pool Party with a layer of Real Red Cardstock. Laid over the top of the Real Red Cardstock, is a piece of the Let It Snow Specialty Designer Series Paper. It will almost kill you, but you can cut the designer paper sheet with the glittery snowman appropriately so that you get the snowmen that you choose on the paper. If this does kill you to whack your beautiful paper up this way, you might want to order extra!

The ribbon wrapped around the card (to hide the seam of the designer paper on the Real Red is the Real Red 1/8″ Curly Ribbon. It is fun to use on cards, of course, but you might like to order extra to use as real wrapping ribbon on your Christmas packages!

The greeting is one from the Snowman Season Stamp Set. It is stamped in Memento Black. The banner ends are punched with the Tag Punch. And finally, I added some red stick-on dots from the Toile Tidings Glitter Enamel Dots. And finally, I added only about three snowflake sequins from the Snowflake Sequins. When you get right down to it, this Let It Snow Designer Paper Christmas Card is pretty easy to make!
