Christmas Card Making Kit

I was overjoyed when I spotted this item at Michael's, as I wanted to try something different for making Christmas cards this year and go "an easy route". It "fit the bill" perfectly for me. And. . . . using a 50% off coupon didn't hurt, neither. :-)

Here's what the box looks like. It has a flip-top lid and a li'l compartment on the inside lid, that you can see some goodies peeking thru the cover. This box can be refurbished for so many different things. :-)

It comes complete w/ everything you need to make 18 gorgeous cards (3 each of 6 different styles):- cardstock; die cuts all measured and pre-cut; embellies such as:- beads, pompoms, glitter, ribbon; all pre-glued and pre-popdotted. I found the artwork to be very whimsical so it was right up my alley!! :-)

Here's a sampling. You can click on the pix to enlarge them.

Showing the front; inside w/ the li'l sentiments that are also included (which you can mix/match); and the back that says: "Handmade for you by". I just added my name via an alpha stamp set.

You can embellish them further, i.e. adding more beads, or Stickles, chalk, etc. or even inking the edges. Or you can just leave them "as is". You can see in this pic that they even thought of using "layers" for the sentiment. How cool is that, eh? :-)

You don't even have to follow the sample pix enclosed in the package, as you can mix/match the die cuts, too. Can you tell how excited I am about this li'l gem?? LOL

Oh yeh, they even include 18 protective inserts to place over your cards, when mailing. They literally haven't left anything to chance.
