THREE: I am hosting a personal giveaway with a $50 Prize Pack of Simon Product when you comment on my video below.

Okay, y’all now to the projects. You know I am all about keeping simple with a low key card and minimal supplies.

These next three cards are made with the same Cheer & Joy products

With these two lovely products and simple supplies, you can create easy Christmas/Holiday Cards.

Each of these guys has a variation of heat embossing color and die cutting the Joyful Die from a different paper.

For my next card, I actually did a live tutorial. Super easy and it shows you the WHOLE process without editing.

True story! The only thing I changed was the blue cardstock for a red one.

You can see the replay here:

Ok, now your turn to create something Cheerful & Joyful 🙂 Hop on over to Marge Yoon for some amazing inspo~ And don’t forget to add a comment below.
