The Crafty Elves Countdown to Christmas | December 2025 Edition | Happy New Year Card

  Hello everyone, and welcome to the December 2025 Edition of the Crafty Elves Countdown to Christmas with  Deb  and  Lisa  - otherwise known as The Crafty Elves . On the 25th of each month, we (the Crafty Elves) post one or more holiday cards in hopes that we inspire you to start  making your own.  This way, by November, we have cards ready to mail or to give to people during the holidays.              Another year completed!  Deb, Lisa, and I have been doing this for a few years now.  And, being December 25th, Christmas Day, there is no need to make a Christmas card.  So, I made a New Year's Card to help usher in 2026.    To make this card idea: I made a top-folding slimline card using white cardstock, measuring 3 5/8" x 8 5/8".   Using a stitched rectangle slimline die, I di-cut a piece of glittered white cardstock, which I adhered to my card front.   I cut a piece of wh...

I celebrate everything this time of year.  Yesterday was my birthday and, being Jewish, I celebrate Hanukkah.  But, since all of my friends growing up were Catholic and Italian, I also love to decorate and shop for Christmas.  I hope everyone had a great holiday, no matter what you celebrate.   This month, instead of showing you ideas for Christmas or Hanukkah, I thought I would show you some ideas for New Year cards - if you make them.   For both of these card ideas, I used two dies from my stash - both from Memory Box - Share T...

  Hello everyone and welcome to the December 2021 edition of The Crafty Elves' Countdown to Christmas with  Debra of  Meticulosity , Lisa of  Life of a BZScrapper , and myself!   And, Merry Christmas if you celebrate the holiday.  This is the last Crafty Elf post for 2021 and, because this edition falls on Christmas, I decided to make a few New Year's cards to share with everyone.   I'm curious - do you send out cards for the New Year? Links to everyone's projects and social media are at the end of this post. Idea No. 1 If you need a quick card, have a printer, and don't mind using digi stamps, this idea might be perfect for you. During Black Friday, I bought some "label sentiment" digi stamps from Lily of the Valley on Etsy to use on cards.   THIS set has "Merry Christmas" in several different languages and makes a really quick card. I printed the sheet of label sentiments.  Then I trimmed each label I wanted to use, leaving...
