Five Days of Christmas

Welcome to my five days of Christmas!

Earlier this month I published my five days of Christmas on my Facebook page – a new card every day for five days. These quick and simple cards focused on the Cookie Cutter Christmas stamp set with coordinating Cooke Cutter Builder Punch. The cards made from this bundle show how versatile it is and how a card might look using one of each of the little critters on the stamp set.

On the first day of Christmas,
a card I made for you…
A very merry Christmas bear,
Who is great for birthday’s too!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On the second day of Christmas,
a card I made for you…
Two heart shaped buttons,
On a gingerbread man playing peek-a-boo.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On the third day of Christmas,
a card I made for you…
Three friendly reindeer,
there’s Rudolph and his crew.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On the fourth day of Christmas,
a card I made for you…
Four squirts of water,
to give Santa’s mat a green hue.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On the fifth day of Christmas,
a card I made for you…
Five flying snowballs.
Quick! Hide behind an igloo.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I kept the colour palette simple: Garden Green and Cherry Cobbler with either Very Vanilla or Whisper White. I also used Crumb Cake for the little bear and Archival Basic Black. And that’s it! I designed a bundle where you can make 20 cards (8 x Reindeer, 8 x Santa and 4 x Christmas Bear) for $125 which is a fantastic price and includes everything a complete beginner would need to make these cards (just add glue and scissors!). So if you’re considering giving hand made cards this Christmas and finding the $10 per card from the shops too much, get in touch to see how I can help you.
