5 Minute Holiday Cards | Origami Tree
When I say the word “origami” most paper crafters tell me their heart skips a beat. The truth is that not all origami paper crafts are difficult. This amazing Christmas tree is a perfect example!
A simple square piece of designer paper, along with a few snips of your scissors and you’ll have this origami tree in minutes. Be sure to watch the video for all kinds of tips and tricks on making this Christmas tree.
You can even turn these trees into ornaments by backing them with cardstock and punching a hole for a small thread or ribbon for hanging.
Doodling Deer
Every stamper knows that a good set of die cuts can be used for an endless amount of time in a variety of ways. That’s proven on this simple reindeer card.
The deer is simple to create thanks to the Reindeer Fun Dies. No piecemealing here! Three separate dies line up, one on top of the other, to create this adorable buck.
If your inventory doesn’t include stitched or decorative border dies grab a marker and doodle your own. This took under a minute and the added character of the uneven lines is perfect for this whimsical card.
