How to Make a Card With Stamps, Ink, Paper, and a Punch

Hello Friends,

Are you new to stamping?  Would you like to learn the basics of How to Make A Card?  Are you an experienced stamper, but you only have a limited amount of time to craft?  If you answered yes to any of these things, Make it in Minutes Mondays are for you.  Most Mondays here at Stamping Country, I share cute cards or tags that can be made in minutes with a little bit of stamping.  Get Step by Step Easy to Follow Instructions including card measurements along with a card supply list.  Today's simple card is a Christmas Card made with the Perfectly Plaid stamp set and the Pine Tree Punch. 

Today's Make In Minutes Card Tips

Make Today's Card in 5 Simple Steps

1. Cut a 4-1/4" x 11" Thick Whisper White Card Base.  
2. Using Just Jade Ink and tree stamps from the Perfectly Plaid stamp set.  Stamp 3 trees as shown.  Hint:  I used my Stamparatus for a perfectly stamped image.
3. Using Cherry Cobbler Ink stamp "Merry Christmas".
4. Using Early Espresso Ink stamp pine cones.
5. Using Pine Tree Punch and Just Jade Card Stock, punch to trees and place as shown.

See the list of Card Supplies Below.

Last week I got slightly sidetracked making a Christmas Card with the Pine Tree Punch.  Instead of a Made In Minutes Card, I made the pretty card on the right.  If you are a more avid Card Maker,  hop on over to see my process for making the Christmas Bell Card.
