Welcome to the "Are you ready for the holidays?" blog hop...OK OK, it's not really called that, but seriously...
are you ready?
Well, have no fear, we have loads of inspiration waiting for you!
I love to send out personalized Christmas cards.
I use to try and make everyone a one of a kind card but man, that's a lot of work! I've learned that I can make a unique card and then have it printed, this way they are still getting a custom card from me but with way less pressure...I mean I still have to decorate the tree, wrap presents and bake all those cookies...it's exhausting just thinking about it! So I hope this gives you the inspiration to make your cards but take some of the pressure off you!
Techniques that I used to make my card:
masking
layering different stencils
outlining
shading
accenting
reverse stenciling to get mirrored images
Check out my video so you can see how I incorporated them all!
We have a more than a dozen projects our Creative Team members made just to whet your appetite for the merriest season!
