Can't see the forest for the Trees...

Hey everybody,has your week flown by too?  Have you started to think about your Christmas Card List yet?  Well if you haven't,I have a super cute idea for you!  This would be a great memory making project for you and the kids/grandkids.


All you will need are 4 items/supplies to craft up some homemade Christmas cards!  You could do anything from trees,snowmen,santa,stars,bells,gingerbread men,or any other Christmas shape you can think of.

Supplies needed:

  • card stock
  • glue/glue sticks
  • pinking sheers
  • scraps of Christmas fabric



Fold your card stock in half,or if you would like smaller cards,you could cut it in half first,and then fold each piece in half.  Then let the kids/your imagination go :)


My cards are all trees,because the scraps used were all triangle-ish shapes.  As I am sure you have noticed,they are also all wonky trees,or you could call them Charlie Brown Trees :)  Yes,I planed it that way,since nothing in this world is ever really "perfect".


A close up for you!  With Christmas Break/vacation coming up,you will be having to think of projects to keep the kids busy.  I would love to see your handmade Christmas cards :)

  1. Those trees are adorable...what a great idea for using up scraps! Last year we glued scraps to foam ornament balls, but it was kind of messy because we rolled them in glitter after. I like this idea a lot more!

  8. CardRecovery Crack
    CardRecovery Serial Key is very easy to use. The whole restoration technique consists of several stages. First, you must select the card you want to use to repair the document, the file you want to find, and select the location of the recovered document. The program then scans the card and publishes a list of files it finds. With the preview function, you can easily find and retrieve your photos and movies.
