Home for Christmas bambi cards... in a hurry



When you need a batch of Christmas cards in a hurry, it does help to be a Stampin’ Up!® demonstrator with lots of leftover Make & Take kits. I always prepare too many Make & Takes for parties as you never know if extra people are going to turn up, and I can use the extras for other events or, in this case, for myself. And a pile of Pool Party card blanks was just the job for this quick project, which is very closely based on this beautiful album created by French demonstrator Hélène Legrand. 

I love these little bambis, but wasn’t sure of the best way to use the Designer Series Paper effectively. Hélène’s idea to punch them out was perfect, as it allows the cuteness to stand out. The corrugated paper sets them off nicely; I don’t use this often enough and I love it. I ran out of wooden snowflakes while making these my cards, so switched to a punched star for the rest.
