Use Your Scraps for Christmas Cards!

[Kathleen Schmelz]

Hi everyone! It’s Kathleen here again with another Season of Wonder card. Today I have another super quick & easy card for you that's not only great for mass producing, but also for using up those white or colored cardstock scraps that we all have (right?!).

*Disclaimer: All products used are linked below as clickable images. If a product isn’t listed, it’s been discontinued.

Step-by-step instructions:​

1. Card Base & Panel:
   1. (1) A2 top or side-folding card base from white or colored cardstock
      
   2. (2) A2 panels from white cardstock
2. Celestial Weave & Celestial Quilt Panels:
   1. Ink blend the A2 panels with Lush Forest all over (or use colored cardstock in a similar color)
   2. Die cut one panel with the Celestial Weave, and the other with the Celestial Quilt coverplate dies.
   3. Adhere the Celestial Weave die cut on top of the Celestial Quilt.
3. Colored Stars:
   1. Back the stars with colored cardstock strips, or use white cardstock and ink blend with colors of your choice (I used Cherry Blossom, Olive, and Slumber).
   2. Add in some Glitter Cardstock strips for some added sparkle (I used Champagne).
      
   3. Adhere the finished panel onto the card base.
4. Sentiment:
   1. Hot foil a Treasured Greetings sentiment in gold, silver, or champagne onto white cardstock.
   2. Die cut & stack with (2) blank pieces.
   3. Adhere centered onto the card front.
5. Embellish with some Iridescent Dew Drops added to the centers of some of the stars.

This card design can be easily adapted to fit the color scheme of your choice or make it fit any occasion! And it's a great way to use up those scraps that are just too pretty to throw away.
