Make your own Christmas cards this week!

This week is a wonderful time to finish up your Christmas cards and get them in the mail. I am going to share some of my favorite cards with you this week to help get your creative juices flowing.

Don’t forget that today and tomorrow are the last two days to take advantage of SU!’s online spectacular with some items up to 50% off. Click on the shopping bag to hop over to my online store (if you are prompted for your demonstrator then that would be me: Tanja Weir).

Isn’t this card pretty?



What you need:
Stamp sets: Punch Pals, Four the Holidays
Cardstock: Marina Mist, Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White
Stamp Pad: Basic Black
Markers: Basic Black, Pear Pizzaz, Marina Mist, Daffodil Delight, Peach Parfait, Poppy Parade
Extras: White Uni-ball Signo Gel Pen, Round Circle Punches in 1 inch and 1 ¼ inch

Tanja's Spunky Tip:  I used a ruler to draw the white lines down with the gel pen.  Most times I free hand it but for this post I wanted it to be perfect.  Before drawing the bows, try to look only at the right loop of the bow: doesn't it remind you of a cursive letter "R"?  That's the trick.  Draw the R and then the backwards or mirror image R and your bow is done.
If the bows give you trouble, call or email me and I'll shoot a quick video for you and you can watch it to make yours perfect.
