Simple and Elegant Christmas Notecard

Saturday, October 22, 2011

If you are looking for a simple, elegant and easy notecard this Holiday season...look no further!  This is so simple but looks like an expensive notecard you would buy at a fancy paper shop.




This particular notecard, designed with my mom, uses Elegant Eggplant as the base (simply cut your 8.5 x 11 paper into quarters) and use your snail adhesive to put a piece of Whisper White cardstock (1/8" smaller on each side).  Then we stamped Merry Christmas from the Contempo Christmas stamp set with Chocolate Chip ink.  Put the notecard in a self-adhesive clear envelope and VOILA!  We are going to add a Silver Glimmer Paper snowflake done in the Big Shot to add a bit of dazzle but there is no need for it, it is just that elegant on its own!

This simple idea could be used for Easter notecards and Thank you notecards too!  I love that beginner stampers can easily recreate this with basic supplies (a paper cutter, one stamp set, snail, and two pieces of paper).

To create this card you will need:


Stamp Set:  Contempo Christmas (120594)  only $14.95!!

Paper: Elegant Eggplant 8.5 x 11 cardstock (105110), Whisper White cardstock (100730) 
Ink:  Chocolate Chip (100908)
Tools: Clear Envelopes (102619), Snail (104332)
