Today's challenge at 365 Cards is to use gift wrapping paper on a card...
Yummy Gift Wrap from the $1 rack at corner store!
I have been using gift wrap on cards for years.... a cheap alternative!! The next 2 photos show some Christmas cards I've made in BULK... I made hundreds of the first one... and I gave up on the second one because I couldn't figure out how to embellish!
The next cards were done using Cricut 'Beyond Birthdays' cartridge... using both the negative and positive cuts to save paper!
Christmas cards are my favourite cards to make!!
I've used this gift wrap before for a similar card, this was a good excuse to get it out again...

Cuttlebug embossing folder for the tree. (which I call the 'Cheese Tree'!!)

Great cards. I had never thought of using wrapping paper on cards but after today and actually loving my card I just might do that.
ReplyDeleteYour cards are fantastic, great job with the challenge your "bad or fattening" card is a scream, I love that!!!!! Your christmas cards are great, thanks for sharing them.
ReplyDeleteFABulous cards...love the 1st one...ain't that the truth?!
ReplyDeleteWow - 3 fantastic cards, I always love how you use up all of your scaps and think of ways of saving time and money, and using wrapping paper on your cards is a great money saver and great for the enviroment. I never think to use the postive and negative of anything, I usually put them in a box for my niece to play with - I may have to reconsider doing that now. Love your fattening card, the paper is so fitting of the stamp.
ReplyDeleteWow - I love them all. Good job!
ReplyDeleteGreat cards!!
