This Christmas season I decided to have a go at designing a set\u00a0of Christmas cards. These were created with the help of Susan Wong<\/a>, using Stampin’ Up products which can be purchased through her online store <\/a>(the full list of products used can be found at the bottom of this article).<\/p>\n

Here is a step-by-step guide on how to make your own ‘Joy to the World’ card:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"1\"

Begin with half an A4 sheet of Whisper White cardstock, folded in half to create a landscape-oriented card.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"2\"<\/a>

Cut a 65mm by 120mm piece of Basic Black cardstock and stamp it using the Merry Medley stamp set.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"3\"

Mount this on a slightly larger piece of Garden Green cardstock making sure the right hand side is level.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"4\"

Position the mounted piece hard to the right on the base card and about 12mm up from the bottom edge.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"5\"

Stamp a piece of white card with the ‘Joy to the World’ stamp from the ‘Tin of Tags’ stamp set.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"6\"

Using the 2″ Circle Punch cut out the stamp.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"7\"

Cut a flag end from the gold foil sheet and tie the Linen Thread around the front of the card.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"8\"

Using dimensionals, attach the ‘Joy to the World’ embellishment to the front of the card.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"9\"

And there you have it – one ‘Joy to the World’ Christmas Card. See the next page for the full product list.<\/p><\/div>\n

If you’re keen to get together with friends and have a go at making this card or any of the other designs everything you need is listed below and can be purchased through Susan’s online Stampin’ Up Shop<\/a>. Alternatively you can buy them pre-made from our Esty store<\/a>.<\/p>\n
