This card stands up on it’s own, but also folds flat for mailing! I love to think of ways to maximize my stamp sets, so I wanted to use a Christmas stamp set to create cards for any occasion all winter long! This card is easy to make with the paper cutting and time saving tip I have to share with you! Watch the video for all the details!

I used the Christmas Season stamp set, but changed the colors to work for any occasion this winter. This is one of my favorite stamp sets, so I hate to only use it for the holidays. 🙂
