Christmas Card

It's October, which means it's time to start making homemade Christmas cards if you want to get them done by the holidays. So arm yourself with your glue stick, papers, pens, and embellishments, and start making some festive greetings. I made this card by cutting different sizes and dimensions of rectangles in coordinating colors and patterns and using a small tag as the focal point. Next I layered the pieces at angles and wrote the word "JOY" on the tag, gluing the tag on top of the pile of rectangles. Try different focal points instead of the tag, such as a stamped image, a sticker, or a small photo. I used the Christmas Creative Pack from Paper Wishes for all the papers featured on this card.
