Christmas card ideas?
I know it's a little early to start making Christmas cards, but I am in the mood for it!
I went to the store and bought some paper and stuff but now i'm stuck!
What are some ideas, YouTube tutorials, websites and stuff I could use to give me ideas on what they should look like?
Last year I went on ebay and searched for "1950s unused Christmas cards." I found lots of assortments for fairly cheap, and ended up buying a couple bundles for about $25 (to get 100 cards – not a bad deal). I bought the largest generic envelopes that would work with regular postage, and sent the cards out. I had a lot of comments about the uniqueness of them, how "cool" it was to have an old, unseen card, etc.
So, if you want to do your own, you might search for old cards on ebay, or at antique stores or flea markets. Cut them up and design them…
You could also find a Christmas alphabet website (for example, a "J" could be a candy cane, an "A" could be an angel with a flared dress, etc.) and play with those designs.
It’s the thought that counts… just have fun!
Jack Frost and Mrs. Claus get freaky while Santa pets his reindeer..if you know what i mean

Merry Christmas!!!!
A few years ago I took a bunch of cards I had received over the years and blacked out the names with a marker. Then I put a sticker over the black mark and signed the cards.
Next I made a stamp and stamped each card next to the name. It said "Save a tree, recycle Christmas cards." Then I sent them out as a joke to a few close friends.
You would not believe the response I got. People loved it.
Me, I just thought it was a bit strange that people liked them so much.
You should make one of the Nativity scene which celebrates the birthday of Jesus Christ being born in Bethlehem.
Have you looked on the Michaels website yet? they have a BUNCH of ideas of Christmas cards on there. I’ll say this though, look at Card projects, not just Christmas Card projects simply because I widened my search one day and found inspiration from a Wedding Card idea…Good luck, happy crafting
