For the past dozen years or so I’ve been making my Christmas cards. Sometimes they’re labor intensive, but they don’t have to be. Case in point: these suggestions from Scrapebooks etc. For the other 31 ideas, go to this slide show.

A collection of different sized circle punches, some glue and a bow makes up this clever card.

Thanks for the comment Lisa! I know exactly what you mean--I still haven't committed 100% to our Christmas card design this year. Although, I do have all the supplies I need to make them....I think! ;)

This is one of the best sites I have found for Christmas card inspirations!  Maven referred to one of these cards as simple and elegant ... I would say that's true of all of them!  Easy to put any one or all of these together and all are really beautiful as well.  THANK YOU for taking some of the anxiety out of what is truly supposed to be an enjoyable holiday activity!
