Christmas Card Inspiration 2024

It's that time of the year again to start making your holiday cards. Some of you may have started already but if not, I got some resources for you. I know many of you love cardmaking and scrapbooking, so I am excited to share this information with you. 

In this blog post I will share my Christmas card video playlist, a Michaels card event and five YouTube holiday card tutorials to watch from Gina K., Simon Hurley and others.

From "Julie Nutting Doll Stamp & Christmas Card Tutorial" Video

First of all, I have a playlist of several Christmas card video tutorials I created a few years ago. The ideas are still good so I thought I would share them. You will learn how to use Julie Nutting Doll stamps, paints, patterned papers, lady stencil and even flowers to make wonderful keepsake cards.

Next,  Michaels has a holiday card event now until November 12, 2024 called the "12 Days of Cardmaking" classes. These free, live virtual classes are everyday until the 12th and features different instructors and styles as well as skill levels. You can register on their online class page.

New Art Collection & Video

Today, I am thrilled to share with you my new art collection called "Inspired Blooms." These 16 painting were made this year, 2024. Last April, we attended a fantastic floral exhibit at South Coast Plaza Mall and I was so inspired. Shortly after this show, I sat down at my art table and starting creating my floral joys.  In this video you will see the Inspired Garden Girls, a portrait and 12 floral arrangements.
