Easy Christmas Card Design
Happy Monday everyone – I hope you have a good start to your week and I have an easy Christmas card design to share with you today.
I struggle with card for guys. I love ribbon with bows and lots of bling. For me, it is hard to make a card without that. When I think of cards for guys I think of clean and simple.
To keep it clean and simple I chose to use some pattern paper that had a small pattern. This way I could pair it with another pattern. I am using the Poinsettia this week and I knew I could make a simple red poinsettia using just the dies. To add some dimension to the flower, I used the dies that added embossed lines on the petals and leaves.
When I put the flower on the card base it was flat and needed some interest. I opted to add another pattern paper for a strip across the card to help highlight the flower. This was the element my card needed. To finish off the card, I added a Gilded Gem in the center of the flower.
Are you ready to make this card for the men in your life?
