Hi! Kathy Martin here with a couple cards to share with you that I made with the festive November SEI Cardmaking Kit.
One of my favorite holiday traditions is mailing out Christmas cards to all my friends and family. I remember the joy of receiving cards in the mail when I was a kid and how we displayed them around the house! Each card contained photos of family members I hadn't seen in a while and handwritten notes updating us on the latest. Even then I enjoyed making cards with construction paper, piecing together little holiday scenes!
Today I still love sending and making cards, but with less time on my hands and more cards to mail, I have to keep them clean and simple. That's one of the things I love about SEI's Cardmaking Kits...beautiful designs that can created quickly.
For today's post, I thought I'd throw in another couple designs you can create with your kit. For both cards I used the already cut and folded A2 size cards that are included in the kit. For the Kissmas card I created a heart die cut shape and attached it to the card with double stick tape and cut the overlapping pieces off. Then, using foam mounting tape I added a few stickers. The Happy Holidays card is similar, using a set of nesting circle dies instead. These cards look like more work went into them with the already added sparkle of glitter from the stickers.
Happy holiday card making!
