I cut up my Thomas Kinkaid Christmas Series Paper Pack on Saturday morning and made 8 cards in less than an hour for the Snow Challenge at Cornish Heritage Farms. I’m going to use similar, simple layouts and finish up the rest of them. I can get 48 cards from this pack of gorgeous paper with larger images for gift wrap or bags and solid coordinating paper left over.

The scenes in the Christmas pack are all snowy, so with ‘warm wishes’ from the Joyeux Noel snowflake set, I can package these up in sets of 4-6 for quick, thinking of you gifts at Christmas. They’ll be perfect for Christmas thank yous or New Year’s cards that the recipients can send.

These are accented heavily with glitter in snowy spots. Love how quickly these cards came together for me. Wonderful sense of accomplishment.

  • Stamps - Joyeux Noel (Aimee Nugent Line) Cornish Heritage Farms
  • Cardstock - Thomas Kinkaid Christmas Paper Pack & Kraft (Prism)
  • Ink - Snow Cap Pigment Adirondack & Espresso Adirondack (Ranger)
  • Accs - flourish strips that I cut up (Prima Marketing), Sukura Quickie Glue Pen, White Glitter - unknown, dimensional foam dots

See you tomorrow!

    These turned out beautiful, Lori — love the Kraft base, it really lets the snow shine. Flourish accents, huh? Looks like I’ll be finding some of those in KC this week (wink)!
