Dashing Christmas Card

It's already November! I guess that means it's time to start thinking about Christmas cards! For this particular card, I used Sketch Saturday #282 for inspiration. I recently realized I have about 8 different retired packs of Christmas DSP... So expect to see a lot of cards (and envelopes!) using those in the coming weeks.

 

 

Last but not least, I had to make a coordinating envelope using the Envelope Punch Board! It is soooo easy to use and I just love the results. For a standard-size card, you need a piece of 8x8-inch DSP (or cardstock), and just 4 punches and scores later, you've got yourself an envelope. (And a productive way to use up old paper!)
