Here is the final flippy flappy card that I made to hold a gift card present for two of our nephews. I knew that our nephews, Charles and Jacob, were receiving a barn for Christmas, so I decided to create a farm animal themed card to go along with some wooden farm animals that we were getting them.

Christmas Cards 2021
Our nephews are getting into skiing, so for their flippy flappy card this Christmas, I decided to make a skiing themed card. I combined the Lawn Fawn Penguin Party + Yeti Or Not sets to setup a scene of penguins skiing/snowboarding. I started by creating my sky using a blend of Cracked Pistachio + Faded Jeans + Villainous Potion distress oxide inks. Once it was dry, I use the Snowflake Background Stencils to stencil in some flakes in White Daisy ink.
I am SO excited to share my first flippy flappy card! I LOVE how it turned out :).
My sister-in-law asked me to make up some Christmas cards for her this year. I decided to make them all the same (though I switched out the sentiments to give a few varieties) and included cute coordinating envelopes.
More Christmas cards with the beautiful Fir & Foliage No. 2 set and Tree Trimmings from The Greetery.
The Create-in-Quads Mistletoe stencil set from Taylored Expressions is helping me continue to produce some Christmas cards for my stash!
I've been wanting to create a card like this ever since I saw the Christmas releases from Pigment Craft Co.!
I'm pretty happy that I was able to whip up some quick + simple Christmas cards to add to my stash last night. I chose a holly sprig from The Greetery and paired it with a sentiment in typewriter font from Curio Labels.
I got the PinkFresh Studio Skiing By set especially to make some cards to sell in Kimberley. I had been planning on being in a makers market this fall but with that having fell through, I focused on making some skiing themed cards for Fullfill.
I busted out my Create-in-Quads Mistletoe stencil again from Taylored Expressions and used it to make some plantable Christmas cards. Because I like to keep my plantable cards to one single layer, I only used half the stencil this time. Again, I chose to use some beautiful greens from Pigment Craft Co. and then chose Festive Berries + Aged Mahogany distress oxide inks for the berries.
I've had the Fir & Foliage No. 2 set from The Greetery for awhile and love it. When the Tree Trimmings set that complements these trees went on sale this spring I thought it would be great for some Christmas cards and I am just now finally getting around to using it!
When I first saw some of Pigment Craft Co.'s holiday release, I could not get the Treemendous Bough out of my mind. It was so beautiful and detailed with the layered stamps...it was a NEED for my Christmas stash!
It's such a debate for me on whether I should create numerous Christmas card designs or just stick to one and mass produce. Receiving some Christmas orders a couple of months ago, I decided to get this amazing Create-in-Quads set from Taylored Expressions to speed up my crafting - and I was not disappointed!
