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.
