\nHello!!<\/div>\n
\nToday, I have some super quick and easy Christmas cards that I made using the newly released Craftangles 6″x6″ patterned paper pack “Merry Christmas”.<\/a><\/div>\n
\nThis pack has the most fun papers and I have combined them with the Craftangles Christmas elements pack<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nFor the first card, I cut the patterned paper to fit the front of a greeting card base and embellished it with sparkly paper and sequins.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\nFor the card below I fussy cut the bauble from the christmas elements pack, added some die cut leaves, a silver  bow and self adhesive gem stone. I adhered this with double sided foam tape to the patterned paper and then to the square card base.<\/div>\n
\nI love how this turned out..super cute.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nFor the next card, I used the new ‘Swirly circle’ stencil from Craftangles <\/a> and the  Craftangles fairy dust glimmer paste <\/a> to create the back ground. I darkened the edges of the card with Tim Holtz distress ink to create some interest.<\/div>\n
\nI then adhered the elements panel using 3D foam tape to finish the card.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nI used the same stencil as above, for the next card, but instead of glimmer paste, I used Unicorn white ink. Here too, I darkened the edges to create some interest and splattered some white paint to match the snowflakes on the element panel. A quick and simple card.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nHere too, I have used patterned paper and a fussy cut element. I added a stamped sentiment to this card. The sentiment is from the new Craftangles ‘Happy Holidays’ stamp set.<\/a> I also added a piece of embossed vellum to add some interest.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nFor this card, I embossed the background and darkened the edges of the card base. I then added the element panel and some sequins to finish the card. <\/div>\n
\nNo sentiment needed here.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nFor this card, I’m playing peek a boo with the patterned paper. I dry embossed the  white card and inserted the patterned paper. I embellished the card with some gemstones and a couple of fussy cut printed elements.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nThis one is simple layering of patterned paper on a red card base. I added a left over scrap of the embossed vellum so that the fussy cut element would pop><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nThis card is similarly layered, but here I used a red cardstock panel to make the printed element show better.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nHere I used the Floral Mandala stencil to create the background. I stamped the sentiment from the ‘Happy Holidays’ stamp set<\/a> and added some die cut Christmas trees and a splatter of white paint to finish the card.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nFor this card, I stamped a Christmas music background, tone on tone and added the fussy cut Christmas tree. I also added the sentiment, layered with siliver glitter paper to make the whole card pop!<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nFor the last card, I simply added strip of glitter paper to the element panel and adhered it to the card base.I stamped the sentiment twice, directly onto the element panel,off setting it to create some interest.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nI hope you enjoyed these cards and will give these products a go. Just follow the hyperlinks.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nThanks so much for stopping by!<\/div>\n
\nHave a great day!<\/div>\n
