Christmas Border Edge Cards Adding Color Tutorial by Brigit

Hello there, it’s Brigit, I have a quick tutorial on how to add colors to these Christmas Border Edge Cards. When I have a large amount of cards to send I love simple cards and this is a quick and easy way to add a splash of color to them.

Here are three that I made from the bundle but I’ll show you the Christmas Holly Border Edge Card, (Silhouette Design Store – Christmas Holly Border Edge Card) in the tutorial.

First I ungrouped and then duplicated the card base, next I used the knife tool to slice the card in half.

On the holly border edge half I right clicked and did a release compound path and deleted just the leaves.

After deleting the holly leaves I selected the card and berries, right clicked and selected make compound path.

Here they are layered back up, super simple! You may have to shave a little off of the green so it fits nicely inside the card without hanging out further than the the back.

Here is a closeup of all the cards I made…

 

I really like the simplicity of the white with the colored glitter paper, I kind of wished I did the Santa one the same. For the sentiment I did a print and cut using the Merry Christmas Title 2 which you can get here in the Silhouette Design Store.

 

I did another print and cut using the Merry Christmas from the 3 Christmas Greetings, in the Silhouette Design Store you can get it here.

This Merry Christmas Flourish Phrase sentiment is a cut file.   Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!!

Digital Inspiration with Ashley

A few years ago, I started keeping one Christmas card that I sent to be displayed with my Christmas decorations.  I find my own family likes to look at the family pictures of years past.  I thought it would be a great idea to also capture these Christmas Card photos through the years on a layout.  I created this one for years 2013-2017.  I’ll have to dig through my digital files to find my older pictures, but how fun is this?  This would also be great if you take a yearly family pajama picture!  I used A Perfect Christmas from Echo Park, designed by Lori.  All of the digital files are 50% off during the month of December at Snap, Click, Supply, so it’s a great time to stock up on some lovely kits.  Here is a link to Lori’s Gallery at Snap Click Supply.

Have a great day!
