Christmas Tree Card
by Sharon Laakkonen
"I was looking for a fast and simple card that I could make multiples of very quickly...and use up my scraps! This tree design is perfect for both goals. Just cut "tree branches" and a "trunk base" with your Holiday Jubilee paper scraps. Add them to the card with foam for a bit of lift. You can easily decorate your whimsical tree as much or as little as you wish." ~Sharon
Add gems for a bit of Christmas sparkle, a brad "star", and a wood ticket for a tree trunk! Just use the embellishments you have and make them work for you!

Noel
By Kasia Tomaszewska
When it comes to Christmas Cards (and let's be honest most of the projects) -I love simplicity! It allows me to make more in less time and simple design really helps the products shine! For this card I wanted to show off some beautiful paper flowers so I picked the base colors which would help the red pop. I added some simple tag, few layers, trim and machine stitches and I could call it done. The card's design is super easy to repeat and you can make it in so many different color combinations!~Kasia

These cards are simply beautiful. Not because they are 'simple' . They make beautiful products shine.
