Do you want to make your own Christmas Cards (or other Holiday cards) this year, but don't think you will have the time? Here is a great way to stamp a large number of cards in a little amount of time.
Supplies Needed:
8 1/2" x 11" Sheet(s) of White, Off-White, Vanilla or other neutral colored Cardstock
8 1/2" x 11" Sheets of Colored Cardstock
Medium and Small Size Stamps
Various Colors of Dye Ink Pads

Instructions:
- Take one of your neutral colored cardstock pieces and place it on a covered workspace.
- Starting with the largest Stamp, stamp a few images all over the cardstock.
- Choose your next largest stamp and stamp a few images all over the cardstock in a different ink color. Overlapping images is acceptable!
- Continue until you have used all your stamps. You can reuse ink colors if you wish.
- Cut this piece of cardstock in half so that you have two pieces 5 1/2" x 8 1/2".
- Now cut each of the pieces into 2 1/2" x 5 1/2" pieces. You will end up with 6 pieces with a little left over.
- Out of the colored cardstock, make your card bases by cutting the cardstock in half so that you have two 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" pieces. Fold each of these in half to form the cards.
- Glue the stamped pieces on the cards as is, or you can tear the edges or cut the edges with fancy scissors.
- Add a stamped greeting and some ribbon if you desire.






In just a little time, you have made 6 cards. Now wasn't that easy!
