Three Christmas Cards for Last Minute Inspiration
by Meghan Kennihan
Hi Crafty Friends,
Christmas is coming up fast but these two cards are quick and easy to create and the critters can be used all winter so if you order now you can still use them in January, February, and March!
Make Crafty Friends Q & A:
Q: How many Christmas cards did you make this year?
A: Me? 140+
The first card is with the darling mom/daughter or father/son pair of Whittle Polar Bears.
I used the Wintertime Snowflake Frame Die to frame this duo. Then I splattered the entire card with white Copic Opaque Paint and added the sparkle with Christmas Fairy Jewels.
For my second card, I used the same Wintertime Snowflake Frame die but this time I created a scene with the Whittle Forest Reindeer Kit.I splattered a beautiful blue paper from the Stormy Blue 6x6 Paper Pad with Copic Opaque white and gold watercolor paint to create a shimmery snow.
The Freestyle Script Joy die just adds the perfect sentiment for how this deer family is feeling spending the holiday together.
BONUS CARD! The Oval Fold Frame die makes highlighting sentiments and shape dies easy. I used it below to frame my sentiment from the Christmas Sparkle Set with the fun Whittle Cocoa with Whip die.
I embellished the edges with the Scallop Tall Curve Border Die and added some holly to match the plaid in the Memory Box Holiday paper. Here is how it opens...

Hi Meghan, Three super cards, the Wintertime Snowflake Frame die set is one of my favourites and provides a really pretty frame for the gorgeous Whittle animals, and the 3rd card has my favourite tartan patterned papers, I love all three cards.
Lots of love from Patricia xx
