Lindsay's Stamp Stuff - Christmas Cards

I had FUN making these cards. The new Homemade Holiday digital paper pack from Lindsay's Stamp Stuff is so lovely I wanted to do something that really showed off the paper. Making these fun rosettes made me feel like a kid. Remember accordion folding paper to make fans? In your comments, let me know if you would like a tutorial on how to create these rosettes.


Since I enjoyed making the first one, I made another one using some different papers.


Here is a look at the entire paper pack. (Did I mention that I love these?)



Do you like them? If so, you can get them today for 40% off. Mygrafico is having a 40% site wide sale today so you can pick these up at the Lindsay's Stamp Stuff store.



Be sure to check out the new sets too. Vintage Christmas Labels are designed to work with your Nesties and are becoming my favorite Christmas stamp set. If you don't have Nesties, they are still really easy to cut by hand. Here is a peek at this awesome set:



Be sure to visit the rest of the DT to see what they created for your this week. As always, Lindsay will have a freebie for your on her blog.
