Beautiful cards made with the Rustic Christmas Countdown kit!

October 24, 2023

I created these pretty cards with the Rustic Christmas Countdown kit. It's meant to be used as an advent calendar but I thought they'd make great Christmas cards.

I will not be surprised if this kit sells out soon. It's gorgeous! The envelopes for the advent calendar are approximately 3" X 4"; a good size to add a treat inside.

I added Mossy Meadow & Cherry Cobbler card bases, some textured strips of the same colors and a few greetings.

The greetings mostly cover up the numbers printed on the wood & gold paper elements in the kit.

For greetings I used the Brightest Glow (annual catalog) and Beary Cute (Holiday catalog) along with circle punches and Tailored Tags dies.

We made these projects at my October Flowerbug's Team meeting. So pretty but super easy!

You could make up to 25 cards using this kit just by adding card bases, a few layers and greetings. The red adhesive-backed sequins, Dimensionals, Cherry Cobbler and craft twine all comes in the kit.

See this kit here online. Our Christmas kits can sell out quick; so don't wait too long. You never know if it will be back in time for Christmas.

The kits is gorgeous as an advent project as well! It also includes the cutest clothespins to close the envelopes.

July 30, 2020
This cute card starts out as a standard A2 card – 5 1/2" X 8 1/2". Adding just one extra score line creates this interactive, unique card!

The scalloped White layer is from the Stitched So Sweetly dies and the Real Red greeting is 1" X 4" and punched with the Lovely Labels PIck a Punch on both ends. Note the two different ends shown above.

The Happy Birthday greeting inside the left card is from the Best Year stamp set.

Watch the video below to get my tips on assembly and coloring. Measurements are listed below.
