5 Simple Christmas Cards You Can Make in Under 30 Minutes

Christmas Cards· Gallery

12 Nov

I’ve got 5 simple Christmas cards you can make in under 30 minutes. Perfect for beginning card makers or advanced. Get wrapped in Christmas and get to cranking out those Christmas cards!

Don’t let the stress of the season get to you. You can make these 5 simple Christmas card in minutes.  Let the ‘Brightly Gleaming’ designer series paper do the bulk of your work.  

I love the Christmas greetings in the Stampin’ Up! ‘Wrapped in Christmas’ stamp set so I started with that, some scraps of designer paper and coordinating cardstock and inks. 

Y’all know I also pulled out copper foil sheets, but this time I used the Brushed Metallics version because even though I want my Christmas cards to be simple I still want them to look beautiful!

Bonus: to make this project even easier for you, I have a download that you can print off!

You can make a simple Christmas card with a greeting stamp and some designer paper.
