Be Jolly Santa

 

Ho! Ho! Ho! 

Check out this Holly Jolly Christmas card! 

I used the 'Be Jolly' & 'Holly Jolly Wishes' stamp sets 

on page 29 in the Holiday Catalog.

 

This is one of the cards that everyone made at my 

Holiday Extravaganza class a couple of weekends ago.

This Santa just makes me smile.

I made a pocket on the inside of the card, 

so that you could slide a gift card (or cash) into it!

 

How did I do it?

It is sooo easy......

1. 4x 5 1/4" piece of Basic White cardstock
2. Slide the Tailored Tag Punch up from the bottom of the cardstock, as far as it will go.
3. Center it so that it is even on both the left & right sides.
4. And NOW punch.
5. When adding the adhesive- make sure that you only add adhesive to the outside edges.  Do not add adhesive to the center, as you don't want to close up your 'gift card pocket'!
