Yesterday I asked a question on Facebook, "Have you started your Christmas Cards yet?" The answers were very mixed…yes, no, and done!
If you are in the "No" category, be sure to stay tuned over the next week to get inspired and learn my tips and tricks for Mass Producing Christmas Cards!
This first card in the series is super simple, yet gorgeous at the same time. Don’t you love cards like that?

Measurements:
- Base: 8-1/2 x 4-1/4
- Always Artichoke layer: 5-1/4 x 4
- White top layer: 3-3/4 x 5
This simple layout can be adapted to so many different stamp sets, too. Don’t limit yourself just because you don’t have this stamp set!
When you are mass producing cards, keep the design simple. Cut all the cardstock first, and all the same size at the same time. For example, cut all the bases at the same time, then move on to the first layer.
Same with stamping…stamp all the trees first. Then, stamp all the greetings. Then, do all the glitter. Lastly, do all the adhesive at the same time. It will go much faster this way instead of individually making each card one by one.
See how easy it is to make:

You are welcome, Lucy! It’s an oldie and goodie, that’s for sure!
Very simple, but very lovely card Catherine ! I can see it as a sympathy card as well. Of course without the dazzling diamonds !
I absolutely love your series on mass producing holiday cards! It’s so nice to give something so lovely, yet be able to make LOTS of them with such ease.
Thank you, Catherine!
Happy Holidays!
I am loving this series, just what I needed this holiday season to get me going. I love this Stamp Set, I received a thank-you card from someone using this Stamp and it is just lovely! Thanks for sharing!

Honestly, I’m just amazed how easy you make these beautiful cards!! I have had the stamp set “Lovely as a Tree” for several years and I’ve never made anything with it! I just love the card you made with this stamp set and I will be making some of these this year! Just beautiful!
