CelebrateDecember2014

Welcome to Celebrate December at Elle’s Studio! The month of December will be packed with holiday inspiration, projects, layouts, and gift ideas from many talented designers. So make sure to visit Elle’s Studio everyday for prizes, giveaways, and inspiration!

Today we have Suz Mannecke with us sharing TWELVE different Holiday Cards!

Suz shares, “Today I am sharing with you ‘The Twelve Cards of Christmas’.  This collection of cards range from clean and simple to a bit more involved but totally doable!  Below is my collection.  Many of these cards have added stitching, texture, and dimensions along with the fabulous exclusive Elle’s Studio wood veneers, stamps, pattern paper, and tags!Suz1For the card on the above right, I added a little bling to it along with some Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist Marshmallow.  Love the subtle sheen it provides to the card.  The warmest wishes is an exclusive Elle’s Studio stamp.Suz2The card on the below left is was made with some Good Cheer pattern paper as well as the simply adorable “believe” tag.  Then I added some Stickles (glitter glue) for a little added shimmer.

The card on the right was made with a star punch.  The inside reads, “The stars are brightly shining— Wishing you a holiday season filled with sparkle and the love of Jesus.”Suz3(1)

The card on the below left, I took a 3×4 card from the Monthly Kit and used a circle cutter to cut out a window to place that fabulous wood veneer ornament in.  I added bakers twine and some pop dots to give the 3×4 card more dimension to showcase the ornament.  Then I used the “fa la la” exclusive stamp for the sentiment on a smaller flag tag.

The card on the right I also used a circle cutter and a circle punch to create the window and a pop dot to the “Joy” circle for added dimension within the card.  The little snowflakes (starbursts) were made with a mini punch.  Suz4 Suz5

For the card below on the right, I stitched between the patterned diamonds and used a craft knife to make a window for that adorable cute wood veneer Christmas Tree to peek through.Suz6

There you have it!  Twelve Different designs to help inspire you and help you get your holiday card making off to a great jump start!   Happy Holiday paper crafting everyone! May your days be merry and bright!
