Our second card is a perfect example of the kind of Christmas card I recommend for mass producing.  A lot of people make the mistake of deciding to try card making for the first time by making their Christmas cards.  But there is nothing more boring and more likely to discourage you from ever taking up the hobby than to have to make 50 or 100 of the same card.  Especially if that card is complicated to produce.  Now, this ornament card is simple to create yet looks so stunning.  I could maybe make 50 of these without dying of boredom although your palm could get sore punching all those branches in one sitting!  The punch is McGill’s Pine Flourish (Martha Stewart also has a pine bough punch that would work).  You’ll need 4-5 boughs per card.  The ornament is a 1 3/4″ circle punch;  use glitter paper for extra zing.  The base of the card is Prism’s Herbal Garden Dark.  To that, layer a 4 x 5 1/4″ gold text paper.  Glue on those punched branches.  Cut a 5″ piece of sheer gold 1/4″ ribbon and tie it into a bow (arguably the hardest part of the whole card) and attach to the top of the ornament.  Add a gold string to the top – just make a loop and tape to the back of the ornament.  Then mount the ornament to the front using dimensional adhesive.  A single one word stamp completes the card.  Lovely!  Hopefully I don’t need to tell you that you can find all the supplies for all of these World Card Making Cards at Creating Lasting Memories in beautiful downtown Brookings, Oregon.  We also take orders over the internet; just email us your request and we’ll get that mailed out to you.  Thanks for looking.  And thanks, Ruth, for helping us make this card.
