So easy to make, you can make 144 from just one package of the Classic Christmas 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper!
Which color did you like my clean and simple card with the best? Cherry Cobbler, Sahara Sand, or Shaded Spruce? Then, once you picked a color, did you have a favorite pattern? Were you pleasantly surprised at how good a pattern looked that you were skeptical of?
The pattern paper is double-sided. If you prefer one side over the other, chose your favorite side when you make your own Christmas cards.
You’ll get three strips of patterned paper from each 6″ x 6″ sheet. I could have trimmed it to 5-1/2″ instead of leaving it 6″ long. Here’s why I chose not to do that. We hand-cut the 8-1/2″ x 11″ Whisper White Thick Cardstock in half to make two card bases. No matter how good we are, we’re not perfect. It’s easier for me to trim off the excess with my Paper Snips than get both cuts to exactly 5-1/2″. If you think you’d be able to use 1/2″ strips, you may wish to instead trim it to 5-1/2″ instead.
