Today I share a quick and fun way to create 2 Christmas cards! We are celebrating Christmas in July with Ellen Hutson and hopping along!
I have a very simple way to create 2 bright cheery Christmas cards with you in my video today. I used the Abstract Paint Strokes Stamp Set to create a bright striped background.
I added a simple sentiment from the Mondo Holly Stamp Set and some Red Droplets as my ‘baubles’.
This card uses the same patterned panel but this time I added a sentiment from the Snow Days Stamp Set and some Snowball Droplets… Love!!
And on both of my cards I used the bow from the Parcel Box Die Set.
You can see my video here or Watch it in HD at YouTube.

Fabulous CAS Christmas cards Therese. Nice colour choice.
Bright, cheerful, and unique!
Love the Abstract Paint Strokes stamp–and you chose such bright, happy, non-traditional colors! Its alwaus a bonus when you can knock out 2 cards for the price of one piece of cardstock!
I love the simplicity of these cards. I find I start out with a more detailed card and after making a few I start thinking don’t work harder work smarter. This is cute, cheerful, bright, and handmade…thanks for great idea.
Cute cards! Love the twofer, and the embellishments with the bows and dots.

You are always so clever, Therese! I almost ordered some of those drops during the sale & now I wish I had–next time!
Great way to get 2 pretty cards that look fabulous! Tyfs!
I love all of your cards Therese! These remind me of my mother-in-law’s aluminum Christmas tree in the 60’s with lights in those colors that made the tree change color – so retro. I’m always happy to see your name on a hop. Thanks for sharing.
Two for one cards are my absolute fave!!! I can’t handle this color combo, I love it!!!
awesome cards
these would be great to mass-produce! luv the colors!!
These are wonderful, Therese! I love how you produced two cards from those great stripes. The sweet bows and droplets look amazing on both of your cards! Great tip about the glue dot – no one likes a “dodgy” jewel picker! lol!
