Simple, Inexpensive and Quick Christmas Cards!

Hi there! I was on a roll and I decided to make some quick and easy cards on a budget. Are ya ready for this? In the core catalog on page 160, item #107311 Note Cards & Envelopes (20 cards pre scored and 20 envelopes, sized at 5 x 3 1/2) at a cost of $5.95 and also using item #128152, Snow Festival Designer Printed Tags in the Holiday Catalog on page 12, at a cost of $3.95.. so that is a total of: $$9.90, and then mix in some colors of ink, some Christmas stamps (I used: Greetings Of The Season, item #128033, Heart Of Christmas item #128129, and Seasonal Sayings item #128009). However, you could use any 1 set, I just have a thing about variety..! I also used some plain card stock in colors of Baja Breeze, Gumball Green and Cherry Cobbler. I then decided to take it just a step further to "fancy them up just a little bit more", and used a variety of embossing folders on them. To even "dress them up more" .. you could add ribbon, or a button, or even some blingy basic rhinestones (my fav!).

Seriously though, for $9.90 you can get the notecards with envelopes and the labels.. how cool is that? Here are some photos for you....











Those are just a few samples of the 20 cards I made today in about a hour or so.. how cool is that? Quick, Simple and Inexpensive to make.. I love it!!!
