Up first is this wreath card.

 

 

I really love that pretty wreath. I wanted it to stand out so I added things to my card to draw your eye to it: the enamel dots, the sentiment banner and even the music circle stickers

 

 

Here's another card for you to check out.

 

 

I matted the grid SN@P! card onto cardstock and then I slapped a couple squares from the Claus & Co. SN@P! Pack on top. I kicked the ornaments up a notch by adding some enamel dots to them.

 

One of things I love about Simple Stories' products is you can use them as the come or you can really personalize them by embellishing them. I love that.

 

 

Speaking of personalizing things, let's talk about that sentiment. Well, it's truly one of a kind. I dreamed it up myself by mixing some of the different stickers from the Claus & Co. collection together. 

 

I did a lot of mixing and matching on this card too.

 

 

Something I really appreciate about Simple Stories is their collections are well thought out. Many of the collections feature lots of stuff, but all of it goes together. I think having matching colors and design elements that work together helps make making things a whole lot easier!

 

 

I always love a good grid design so I made a grid of sorts with the four squares on this card. 

 

 

And then I embellished the squares by adding a chipboard snowflake, enamel dots and Washi paper tape strips.

 

 

In addition to Christmas cards, I made some Christmas tags. Tags are a great way to add a handmade touch to simple holiday gifts.

 

 

I used SN@P! cards for each of my tags. I used a hole punch to pop a hole in the top of each one. And then I added a little twine.

 

 

I threw on a couple embellishments on each tag, just to make them seem a little more handmade.

 

 

These tags took me probably 20 minutes to pull together so there wasn't a huge time investment in making them. But I think they are sure going to make my gift recipients smile when they see them!
