Joy to You by Patti Hamil

Hi, it's Patti. If you're like me you want to make your Christmas cards if possible, but probably don't have much time. I'm here to show you how you can quickly make simple but elegant looking cards in just a couple of steps with just a few supplies! 

This card is so easy that I don't have step-by-step photos because there really are none! Here is the finished card.


and a close-up.


Now, I'm going to tell you how easy it is. All you need is a sheet of ivory cardstock (or colored if you like). I used cardstock for a 5x7 card here. Next you need a sheet of specialty cardstock, the foil looking cardstock, any color, but I used gold.  You also need one embossing folder, I used Poinsetta Lullaby from the Wrapped In Joy collection. Then you just need a couple of blooms, a title and a piece of ribbon!

The embossing shows beautifully on this shiny type paper, and especially for the Holidays! But the look is really striking! Each folder in this collection will make a gorgeous card on it's own!!! I hope you try this if you're short on time like I am!!!! Thanks so much for stopping by!
