Savvy Saturday ~ Cards that Twinkle and Sparkle   Saturday, December 10, 2011
by Kazan Clark   Post Type: Card

I have not purchased a Christmas card in years!  As a cardmaker and crafter I do love to make my own cards and give them to friends and family.  Over the years our list of card recipients has grown (now that the girls are in school our friend list has quadrupeled!), so I continue to seek ways to simplify my cards while still keeping them looking ultra glam and fab!  Spellbinders™ Grand Calibur® Machine's large cutting surface made my creative process so much easier on this card because I could cut the shaped Fleur De Lis die template card, glitter snowflake and pennant sentiment all at once!

Shaped Card Video Tutorial

Once I had my first card set up with all the decorative elements I wanted to use, the production line started:  I printed all my pictures to size and matted them. Then I cut all the shapes I needed. Assembling all the pieces was the easy part!  Now they are ready to be mailed and that is one more thing I can check off of my Holiday To-Do List :)

We would love to see your homemade Christmas cards too.  Be sure to share them with us all by posting an image of your cards on our Spellbinders Facebook Page.  Have fun creating with your Grand Calibur Machine - that is if it is not on your "I've Been Very Good" list for Santa this year ;)

Hugs

    I read online (computer problems) positive feedback about your resource. Didnt even believe it, and now saw myself. It turned out that I was not fooled!...
  • http://www.UnlockBlackberryUSA.com/ Wednesday, January 18, 2012

    Yeah, now it's clear !... And firstly I did not understand very much where there was the link with the title itself !!....
  • http://www.UnlockBlackberryUSA.com/ Wednesday, January 18, 2012

    Last a few years has been to Ibiza, so met a person there whose style of presentation is very similar to yours. But, unfortunately, that person is too far from the Internet!....

    Internet is written with the capital letter in a sentence, by the way. And hundredths are written not with a point but with a comma. This is according to the standard. And actually everything is very good..!!

I wanted to first thank all the awesome ladies who came out to see me at the Great Lakes Novi Mega Meet this past weekend.... It was exciting to see so many old friends and new ones!!

It truly warms my heart to know how many Spellbinders fans are in Michigan and many of you are from the beginning days of my company. You remember when my Mom Mary and I were on the road together and the Spellbinders brand was the new kid on the block....

See the entire Excitement and Fun in Novi, MI! post.
