Holiday Cards with Xyron

The Xyron Design Team will be sharing holiday cards this week so be sure to stop by the Xyron Facebook page and check them out.
 
I made three cards to share this week. My first card is a fun pocket card. I kept it simple with just a bit of stamping and some ribbon on the card front. 
 

I will be using these cards to send family photos, but these would be great to send gift cards or other small items as well.


Supplies:
Xyron Mega Runner
Maya Road Let It Snow Stamp Set
Hero Arts Holiday Sayings stamp Set
Hero Arts Sending Holiday Cheer
Jenni Bowlin Cough Syrup Ink
Jenni Bowlin Spice Tin Ink
EK Success 1 1/2 in Circle Punch
White Cardstock
Offray Ribbon

For my second card I cut two triangles and covered each one with washi tape. I used my 5" Creative Station and made DIY foam adhesive to adhere my trees to the card and add a bit of dimension. I added a sentiment to the bottom of the trees to complete the card.


Supplies:
Xyron 5" Crative Station
Foam Sheet
Hero Arts Holiday Sayings Stamp Set
Jenni Bowlin Cough Syrup Ink
My Mind's Eye Winter Wonderland Decorative Tape
My Mind's Eye All Is Bright Decorative Tape
White Cardstock

 For my last card I also kept the front of the card simple and used more of the washi tape and stamping.


The card opens to reveal two pockets to hold cocoa packets and a tube of marshmellows. Perfect for a chilly evening indoors. I started with a 5 1/2 inch tube with a 3/4 inch diameter and created my card to fit the tube and added a 1/4 inch deep pocket on each side to hold the cocoa packets.


Supplies:
Xyron 9" Creative Station
Hero Arts Holiday Sayings Stamp Set
Hero Arts Sending Holiday Cheer Stamp Set
Jenni Bowlin Cough Syrup Ink
My Mind's Eye Winter Wonderland Decorative Tape
White Cardstock
3/4 in Tube
2 Cocoa Packets
