8 Quick and Easy Kaisercraft Christmas Cards with Instructions

Hello Crafty Friends,

What a whirl-wind week I've had! I don't know if you have been the same or not.  But each day has been jam-packed with me trying to achieve certain things and now I look back I can't even really remember what they were!


On the Kaisercraft Calendar we are well into September and that is the second month of Christmas Releases.  This month they have released two Christmas Collections - Letters to Santa and Christmas Edition.  Today I am sharing some simple Christmas cards that can be made in bulk using the Christmas Edition.  These are for those people who make lots of Christmas Cards and want some quick and easy designs.  They also do not require a lot of materials.

NB: I have used two pages of GIVING (which has the sentiments) and have fussy cut the pictures out of one page and mounted onto the other page with foam tape.  If you wanted these cards to be super simple and quick you could forget about the fussy cutting and just use one layer of the sentiment.

What you will need to make the Cards:

I wish I had taken better photos of these cards.  I made them months ago for Retailer's Day for Kaisercraft and then had to send them off to them.  I  was in a bit of a rush when I photographed them because I was sending a huge package of creations by a certain deadline.  It would have been nice to get a photo showing the three-dimensional fussy cutting and a stylised photo of the cards all in a group.  But this is all I have.

I hope you have found the instructions to be easy enough to follow.  If you have any questions let me know in the comments.  

Happy Crafting : )
