The card I’m sharing with you today is one I created for my Convention Swaps ….but then changed my mind. I went back and forth and for some reason I felt like it was off …. just a little …I still can’t explain why.
I used Crumb Cake Card Stock with the Lots of Joy Stamp Set. The greeting can be found in the White Christmas Stamp Set.
I used a ton of punches … Tree Punch, Banner Punch, Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack, 2″ Circle Punch and the 2-3/8 Scallop Circle Punch.
I’ll share my final card after Convention … I really want to say I will share it next week while I’m at Convention … but computer time away from home … not an easy task!!
Here’s a video on how to make the Lots of Joy Christmas Card ….CLICK HERE to watch the video on my Chic n Scratch website.

Kindle Fire
I know this is coming out of left field …. but …. I just had this crazy idea today and thought I would ask! What do you think about the August Giveaway Drawing being a brand new Kindle Fire? Feel free to be honest … it won’t hurt my feelings. The reason I ask is because I LOVE my Kindle Fire so much!!! I have all my books and TV shows at my fingertips …. all the time. I gave my sister Kim her very first Kindle (and my mother in law) and Kim called me and said it was the best gift she’s ever gotten in her life (yes we both cried).
Thanks & have a great day!
p.s. I’m not sure how much I will be able to post over the 10 days … I go tomorrow to get a shot for pain so that I can travel next week … I have to take it easy for 48 hours after the shot .. and then it’s time to start packing. I’ll do my best to check in on my Chic n Scratch Facebook page as often as possible. THANK YOU!!!

I love the idea of a Kindle Fire!! I have an old one but it’s not comparable with everything. So…I’ll take one!! Maybe I could watch more of your wonderful videos!!
I love the crumbcake colors on this card!! It makes it look vintage..but still classic too!. Loved the videos!!

A Kindle fire sounds fantastic. This little card is so cute. I really like
the little tree.
I love that card! And the Kindle Fire is an excellent idea. Have fun at convention.
Oh how I want to win this, but if I dont, I have to make this. Love it Angie. Hi Skittles.
Angie, I love this card. It is so simple yet elegant at the same time. This just maybe my this years Christmas cards…lol. Also, the Kindle Fire would be wonderful. I have an older one and I absolutely love it!! What an amazing gift!!
I love this card, another Christmas favorite. As for the Kindle Fire, it would be and awesome gift.
I love Christmas in July!
And the color you’re using today is my new favorite neutral!
thanks for posting a Christmas card….needed some inspiration to start some of my holiday projects!
I love your card and the colors! See nothing wrong with it…was excited at the idea of swapping with you, and hope to still, whatever design you have!
Love the idea of a Kindle….thanks for asking!
Lovely card!! At first I thought crumb cake for a christmas card but the end result proved me wrong…looks great and you make it look so easy!!! As for the second question, it never seizes to amaze me all the giveaways there are ….of course, I am not eligible being a Canadian….no worries, still love your blog and I will keep dreaming of a Kindle!!! LOL!!!
I would love a Kindle Fire! I love to read and I have an older Nook so I am really wanting an upgrade. Thanks so much!
Cute Christmas card!
Angie, I usually love your creations, but this card is way to monochromatic for me, and brown/grey? At Christmas??? Sorry, love the design, but not the color scheme.
Thanks for all your wonderful videos.

Love the colors very elegant! who wouldn’t like a kindle fire …..great idea
Hi Angie,
The card is a little to neutral. Maybe adding a pop of cherry cobbler (scallop circle) may help it. Or a pop of color on the doily. Anyway you tried and this is just a suggestion nothing negative. Have a great time at convention.
LOVE the idea of a Kindle Fire and the card of course!!
I LOVE skittles….She needs to make a guest appearance!! I need an Skittles fix and an update!!
Beautiful Christmas. A great one fir mass producing.
OMGosh!!! I LOVE this card!!! Thank you soooo much for sharing!!!
I love the card. I see lots of cards that they have used a dollie. I have never made anything with a dollie. I am going to try using one. It really adds a different look.
Wow! What a great giveaway. That would be great to win. I read a lot and that would be so nice to have to get some free books. I am not familiar with all that you can do with one. I am sure willing to try and learn. Thank you so much Angie for such a great giveaway.
Angie, I love the card.The neutral color makes it elegant.
Very nice card. It was very clean & simple for everyone for everyone to make. Thank u for sharing this card & the last several, to be fairly simple to make. I love your cards,!!! Always perfect. Thank you for the inspiration. Buffy Scott
LOVE this card, Angie! I am going to hunt you down at convention, so we can swap. I made bookmarks this year as a change from a card, so if we meet, although you love your Kindle Fire, maybe you’d like a bookmark too! I hope you feel better…don’t worry about us, we know you work so hard, so rest up for convention! Hugs!
Hi Angie, Interesting choice of color for Christmas, it works!
Love this card Angie! Love the colors..who would have thought those colors for Christmas ! Love it…Peggy
Would have never thought of using these colors for a Christmas card but it is so cute. I love the idea of the Kindle fire for the giveaway. I have given them to my daughter’s and they love theirs but I don’t have one myself. Have a great time at convention next week.
Love this card!
Angie, your card is so pretty. LOL, a Kindle Fire sounds great to me. Why wouldn’t anyone want one. I know some people still like the feel of a book in their hands. It’s funny, but, you know when people have giveaways, everyone comes out of the woodwork. LOL
I love the idea of a Kindle Fire. I have a Kindle and I really love it.
Pretty! I like this card and it’s ease to mass produce
Loved your card. I need to get busy making my Christmas cards. Thanks for your inspiration.
Such a cute card! I must get the tree stamp set.. A chance to win a Kindle would be great!
Wooohooo! A Kindle Fire! Great idea and a useful tool to view craft videos as well as read books and magazines.
What a great thought a Kindle Fire sounds wonderful and the card was so
cute. Your videos are so creative and look forward to them always. Hope
the pain shot does the trick.
