Contemporary Celebrate the Season

Simple, huh? Have you noticed a trend with most of my Christmas cards? Yep, they are simple - because I make so many. Cute cards don't have to take hours to create. Here's another example of a simple card that's sure to impress. Tips: 1) Although this stamp set has a coordinating set of Framelits, I opted not to use them this time. I simply stamped the image in Real Red, added a silver 'string' with the marker and a bow and voila! 2) The dots create a distinct area for the greeting. I colored in the dots with markers.

Supplies:

Stamp Set: Ornament Keepsakes (128048 wood, 128051 clear), Border Banter (128927 wood, 128930 clear), Greetings of the Season (128030 wood, 128033 clear)
Cardstock: Real Red, Whisper White
Ink Pads: Real Red, Garden Green
Ribbon: Wild Wasabi 1/4" Stitched Grosgrain #126873
Punches: 3/16" Corner Rounder #119871
Accessories: Silver Dazzle Marker #128978, Glue Dots, SNAIL Adhesive

Creativity for a Cause

I serve as the assistant lead on behalf of Stampin' Up! for the Ronald McDonald House in Tampa, FL. It is my responsibility to ensure all 14 guest rooms are stocked with hand-stamped greeting cards for the families to use during their stay. The RMH uses approximately 300 cards per month and I need more “manpower” to help me create them. This is where your group (Women’s ministry, group of neighbors, friends, Bible study, Mom’s group, Bunco group, etc.) comes in. I will provide pre-designed, pre-cut pieces that are ready to be stamped and assemble. I ask for a $5 donation, per person, to help off set the cost of supplies. I would love to have your help, so together, we can make a difference in our community. For more information or to organize your group, please contact me.
