Still haven’t made your Christmas cards? That’s OK. I’ll show you how to make quick Christmas cards. I made 25 cards in under an hour. Check out the video link below for more details. Let’s talk about the 6 quick and simple layouts I used.
First I want to share that I was able to make these so quickly because I used the snap cards and coordinating papers from the Jingle All the Way line designed by Simple Stories. I have the products linked below.

- Patterned Paper http://shrsl.com/2nabp
All of the cards using the smaller snap cards use patterned paper paper backgrounds that are cut at 4×5.25 The snap cards are matted at either 3.25×4.25 or 3.25×4.
This card uses a 1/2″ x 5.25″ patterned paper matted at 3/4″ x 5.25″ and the snap card is matted at 4″ x 3.25″.
These cards both use patterned pieces that are 1.5″ x 4″ and matted at 1.75″ x 4″. The matted piece can be placed at the top as shown in the card on the left or in the middle as shown in the card on right.
This card uses a strip of patterned paper the is 4″ x 1.5″ and a piece of cardstock that is 1.5″ x 5.25. To make the patterned piece stretch across I cut the patterned piece and left a blank piece behind the picture.
This card uses a patterned piece that is 1.5″ x 4″ and matted at 1.75″ x 4″. The matted piece was placed off to the left.
This card the matted image was simply placed in the middle of the card.
For this card the matted image is simply put on a tilt for interest.
