Camilla and Monika here to show you some Christmas cards today. Christmas seems to be far away right now, but time flies and soon it’ll be time to make those cards. We hope this post will inspire you.

Camilla: The 6″ Paper Pads are perfect when making cards. Both Kaiser Christmas collections are so gorgeous and it was so easy to make these cards. I usually struggle when making cards. First a card with ‘Tis the Season:

Card “Merry Christmas” – Camilla Ekman: 6” Paper Pad – ‘Tis the season (PP830); Rhinestones – red (SB711); Tiny Alpha Stickers – chocolate (MA512)

Other: chalk, qk dies, punches

And then a card with the Be Merry collection:

Card “To You From Me” – Camilla Ekman: 6” Paper Pad – Be Merry (PP829); Journal Tags (JT605); Mini Alpha Stickers – red (MA508); Printed Chipboard (CB114)

Other: floss, chalk, border punch

Monika: I  cut the glittery trees from one of the the papers that you can find in the 6” paper pad. I arranged them  as I wanted them and glued them together and then I stitched them together. They are so cute!

Items used:
Be Merry Paper pad PP829, Chipboard CB114, Grosgrain ribbon R1605
