Have you finished making your Christmas cards for this year? If not, I have a Peace on Earth Christmas Card for you that is an extremely easy Christmas card to make.
Snowflakes are so beautiful on Christmas cards, don’t you think so? I have two retired Stampin’ Up! snowflakes stamp sets so I didn’t purchase the beautiful Snowflake Soiree stamp set in the current Holiday Catalog. I decided to use the two sets that I have to create this card. You can use any snowflake stamp set to create the same card.
Are you thinking that snowflakes are not red? That’s the beauty of paper crafting. You can create artwork the way you want it and it doesn’t have to reflect reality.
This is a closeup of the sentiment on the Peace on Earth Christmas Card.
