hi this is karen titus from stamping on the back porch and i'm back today with another
in our series of stamping through the alphabet we are up to letter q for quick christmas
cards i'm going to show 2 variations on this card i think these are both really pretty
so i'll show you how i did that and of course this gets really simple now some people would
look at this and say karen that is not simple you have to cut it out but keep in mind that
i always do my cutting out when i'm either waiting in the car for someone i always keep
some work handy or when i am half heartedly watching tv even if it's during the commercials
so i still consider this very quick and easy so this is with the lovely single christmas
stamp the christmas star it is really pretty and i've stamped it in cherry cobble and then
the card base is crumb cake regular size and i attached a piece of paper from the season
of style that is two and a half inches by five and a half inches so that's on the bottom
now in this one you can see i just wrap the ribbon around and with glue dots put it right
there no tying nothing because this is going to cover it and i have my dimensionals on
the back i will just take that off and figure out which way i want my star and that one
is finished now to do this one you can notice that i have come through here and i added
a little know so thats what we're going to do today so i have my star and i punched a
hole in the middle so i'm going to bring my ribbon around and it want to make sure that
my ends are really pointed so that it will be easy to get through the holes i'm going
to point them even more that they are and of course the biggest trick is to make this
part easy and again i would do all of this while watching tv i always have my little
tray that moves with me from room to room and anything i'm doing half heartedly when
we have our 18 month old grandson i take that tray with me and follow him from room to room
so i'm there watching him play but i'm working on my own stuff too ok so i just brought ths
through did a half know and then i just took the ends wherever i wanted them to be and
did a whole bunch of little snips we'll see how easily i can do that i did as many of
these as i could and i just ruffed that up to make this fun little bow right here and
then the star again i put dimensionals on to give so that is it so short video quick
and easy of course and enjoy this idea for quick and easy christmas cards check on all
the single stamps they are all so fun to work with and its easy to make cards when you are
only going to stamp one image and add a little paper you're done thanks for watching karen
