Last Minute Vintage-Looking Christmas Cards

I wanted to show you how to make last minute Christmas cards with a vintage vibe. I used images that were supposed to make a banner for hanging from a fireplace from Temu, link: http://tinyurl.com/r9jjst7c for the focal image of each card.

The card bases came from a box of cards I bought at a garage sale, and without them, I’d recommend you making 5 x 7″ card bases. Some of the cards I lined with a 4 3/4″ x 6 3/4″ patterned paper before adding the banner piece to the front.

I used a Simon Says Stamp embossing folder called Kaleidoscope with silver mirrored card stock and then added Santa riding a candy cane with foam squares for dimension.

I made one card very plain, running a strip of plastic ribbon from my stash and then gluing on three gingerbread men I bought on Temu, link: http://tinyurl.com/2bwy49un as well as a wooden greeting of Merry Christmas: http://tinyurl.com/3eh5awyb.

I used Christmas greeting stickers I bought from Temu as well, but didn’t put them on the cards until I finished the video.

I used Tombow Mono Aqua Glue as well as tear tape and foam squares to adhere the images together.
