12 Days of Christmas – Day 2

Friday I went to visit the Assisted Living Center for our monthly card class. We made two Christmas cards. The cards that I create are cards that can be done by my avid crafters who attend or those with cognitive deficits. All of the cards can be stepped up and my avid crafters often do! This card was a simple card that we created since our other card was a bit more detailed for them.

One of the things that I will be doing (and I have started some now!) in the new year is to offer tutorials – you’ll get more information on a secret I’ve been keeping soon! Back to this card, the DSP is a retired DSP that I have been hoarding forever! I mean like years hoarding – because I love it so much. But, if I was going to share it with anybody, it would be my residents at the Senior Living. So part of what I am doing is creating templates to use – which gives me the perfect opportunity to use some of my beloved DSP.

This card is a great example of keeping it simple and can quickly mass produced. I used Very Vanilla Cardstock cut at 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ and scored in half at the 4-1/4″. I then cut a piece of Real Red Cardstock to 4-3/4″ x 3-1/2″ with the DSP cut to 4-1/4″ x 3″. I used the Labels Aglow Dies to cut the label shape and stamped the sentiment from Brightest Glow stamp set in Garden Green Ink. We added a bow with a Mini Glue Dot in my favorite ribbon the Black & Very Vanilla Large Check Ribbon.
