2014 Christmas & Holiday Cards & Tags In Review

Looking for a last minute holiday card or tag idea?

Maybe you need a gift card holder, a pretty card or tag to top a package or you're like me and will be mailing out your holiday cards next week (because, hey, why would you want to do that early?!!!!) or maybe you just want a jumpstart on ideas for next year's Christmas cards. Whatever the reason, I've compiled fifty holiday cards and tags I've made this year into one post. Be sure to click on the links below each photo collage to see more, watch videos (for a lot of the designs) and see what products were used for each project.

Have a super weekend!

Love all these! You are super talented and really fun to watch. Quick question - I just used the ranger liquid platinum embossing powder for the first time, and it wasn't smooth at all - more of a pockmarked finish. Any tips or ideas about how to get a really smooth, pretty finish with embossing powders?

Thank you and Merry Christmas to you and your family!
