The Holidays have a way of sneaking up on us. So let us not do that this year by starting our Holiday cards early. Today’s card is a simple quick card that you could easily whip out a dozen or so. I chose to use one of my favorite designer series paper that is not just for the Christmas Quilt set. In fact, I have done two cards one here and the other on Facebook. So don’t ignore this fabulous paper. See Updates below.
Normally, you find the same stamp set in my newsletter as my blog. I decided to turn things upside down today. Speaking of newsletters.

There will be a technique video tied to the card that my newsletter subscribers are receiving on Wednesday.

Are you a person who likes to stick to red and green for Christmas colors or do you like non-traditional colors such as pink or blue? Today’s card is less traditional. It is blue, but not Night of Navy. I pulled out my Pacific Point ink because I went to the non-Christmas paper. I found some different paper in Eastern Palace Designer Series Paper. Then I pulled out one of the edgelits from Hometown Greetings. This edgelits dies and the stamp set Hearts Come Home is perfect for that special Holiday card. You can make nonreligious or religious just by what you pick on the edgelit. Come see my nonreligion card.
