I’ve heard from a few of my friends that they’ve recently started listening to Christmas music again or that they’ve been whistling or singing some of their favorite holiday tunes. Isn’t it crazy to think that the holidays are just beyond the horizon?
Yes, the holidays are on their way, so you’ve got to prepare by finishing up your Christmas card stash before the end of the year craziness takes over!
Check out our November/December issues for some pretty sweet Christmas card ideas! I’m going to show you four of them today—one from each of our four core styles. First check out this one! We love to see a classy & elegant religious Christmas card!

Oh Holy Night Card by Giovana E. Smith on p. 51
And by golly, who doesn’t love holly? (I know I do . . . but I suppose I am a little biased. *wink*) This card is a great example of a clean & graphic card.

Simple Christmas Card by Vanessa Menhorn on p. 45
There’s something so appropriate about these vintage holiday images on this shabby chic & vintage Christmas card.

Joy & Cheer Card by Vera Wirianta Yates p. 53
And of course, the favorite of the styles, fun & cute. This card mimics a bulletin board perfectly, and that cute snowman and cutesy font! Who wouldn’t like it?

My Coolest Friend Card by Courtney Kelley on p. 36
Ready to make some of your own Christmas cards? We’re offering some free downloadable sentiments right here on our website, so check them out!
And what kind of blogess would I be without a little holiday cheer in the form of a giveaway? I have the stamp set Courtney Kelley used on her cute little card—Swanky Snowdudes by Paper Smooches.
