Hello! Are you like me and do you love Christmas Cards? I love to send them, and I love to receive them. For years I have made my Christmas cards, and every year I keep the cards I receive. I created this project to store my received cards for this year. Click here to check out my latest tutorial!
I am doing this as a bonus design team project for Country Craft Creations. I am involved in an upcoming virtual retreat called "Journey to the North Pole." I had leftover papers from the project I designed for that, and created this project. I am using Carta Bella's "Hello Christmas" paper collection, and it is ADORABLE! Please visit Country Craft Creations if you haven't already and check out this store. It is amazing!
This year I have created a Christmas Card Keeper. It's not really a mini album, it is more of a storage binder. It will fit all sizes of cards and photo cards and letters. It has a variety of pockets and a fun type of page that is has a string binding integrated into it.
I think you will like this project and the tutorial is available on YouTube. I have the supply list below for you.
