Just one more merry today. I just love the Christmas Greetings thinlets and you will see them on every one of my “Quick and Easy” card series. This also uses one of my favorite stamp sets from the Holiday Occasions: Lots of Joy.
This is a good card design if you have to make a lot of cards. The punches and thinlets make production of multiples of this card very fast. And I love that the Merry Moments DSP came in both a 12×12 pack as well as a 6×6 paper stack. You wouldn’t think you would need both, but it has come in surprisingly handy this year. The tiny Old Olive layers were punched and then trimmed to show only on one side. I felt like I needed one more small pop of color. But it would have worked fine without it.
So, a very quick and easy card design. It is also a great idea for using multiple designs of DSP. You can make solid color base layers and the decorative pieces in the red colors to match the odds and ends of DSP you have and use up all those small pieces! So mix it up and try Real Red, Cherry Cobbler and maybe the Crumb Cake layer changes to Old Olive. There are a lot of possibilities. Have fun!
