Happy December! We are celebrating the holiday season here on the Inspiration Blog with lots of ideas for festive cards. Today I've got a simple design you can whip up in less than 10 minutes, which is ideal during this busy time of year.

Merry Card by Lisa Dickinson |
Using a base of kraft cardstock, I stamped the word "merry" with the
Clear Alphabet Stamps and
Fountain Pen ink. Then I added a punched scalloped border of red cardstock and colored in one of the "merry" words with a red pen. I fussy cut a section of the Holly Stripe paper to add a festive touch to my card, topping it off with some
Pearl & Rhinestones Charms in Garnet tied with baker's twine.
Easy enough? And you still have time to sneak in a little bit of shopping! (Speaking of which, have you browsed through Jenni's
Flea Market lately? There are some lovely vintage pieces that are one-of-a-kind and could make an ideal gift for someone on your list!)
Happy Holidays!
LOVE how you used the stamps!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, Lisa!! I love Jenni's new alpha stamps. I have trouble stamping all together in a row as in a word, so I stamp each letter individually. Is that what you did? or is there a trick to it I do not know? TIA

@Anonymous I stamp them individually, too! I actually went down the card, stamping all the m's , then the e's, etc.
