Christmas card set for Altenew November Challenge

Hi there!

I had so much fun in my craft room yesterday. The result...  not one but five cards came together using a quick and easy recipe, resulting in a Christmas card set I LOVE !

All inspired by the colors of the Altenew November challenge :






A basic triangle shaped tree cut out. Mine were cut with my Silhouette cameo , but you can use a die or it is simple enough to cut it with a craft knife and ruler! I added dimension to the negative space with fun foam, and filled the spaces with different patterns using stencils and stamps.

All cards feature a sentiment from the Happy holidays stamp set and Altenew inks in the following colors:

  • Ruby red
  • Forest glades
  • Evergreen

What a fun set of cards! These would definitely be quick to make, but they really have some great visual appeal. I love the dimension you added with the foam tape, too.

Simplicity at its finest! You're amazing with the stencils. They sure take up a lot less room than all my designer paper. Great progress on your Christmas cards, Hannelie!
