Another card for today's post. This one is made using the Cold & Cuddly stamp set from the Holiday Mini catalog, and the Four the Holidays also from the Holiday Mini. The card base is Night of Navy card stock cut at 8-1/2"x11" and folded along the 8-1/2" side at 4-1/4" and then one 4-1/4" side folded in half again.

To get the "Merry Christmas" stamp split top and bottom instead of horizontally, use a Stamp-a-ma-jig and a marker. Ink the "Merry" and stamp, clean the stamp well and then do the same for the "Christmas" portion.

With simple scoring and folding, it goes together very quickly. Another demonstrator had shared the calendar file that is printed onto printer paper and cut to size. All fit into the 1/2" library clip from the clips assortment (#112580; $6.95). There are 8 of them included in the package along with a couple of other style of paper clips. While they are still ...
