Christmas Day place cards


It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas....so placecards are being made! We host Christmas Day every year and I try to make our table look "special" with handmade placecards and embellishments. So, this year our theme with be winter/snowflakes. This placecard is super easy to make with the help of our wonderful Big Shot. The base of the placecard uses 2 of our top note die cut outs. I scored each note at 1-3/4" from one end, and then sticky stripped them together. I then made 2 snowflakes with our Stampin' Up big shot dies. One of the snowflakes has a basic rhinestone on it (they already have the adhesive so they are super easy to use). Then, I took a strip of real red (1" x 3") and ran it through our Big Shot with our large polka dot texturz plate! Added the name of the recipient and then of course added the best part of all---chocolate!!
Not only are these the perfect placecards, it gives everyone a little something special inside---some Ghiradelli chocolate squares. Thanks for looking and remember to stamp a little love this holiday season!
