DIY Holiday Card Made by Stephanie:

Here’s an example of how our customer, Stephanie, a working mom with very little time on her hands, created this gorgeous holiday card using the graphics from this pack. Stephanie says loves making paper products like her kids’ birthday invitations & holiday cards. Thank you, Stephanie, for sharing your talent with us!

I love how Stephanie has added depth & visual interest to the design by using a textured background. She has also used beautiful & on trend script fonts to add a touch of whimsy to the text. She’s mixed these modern elements with tradition by sticking to a classic red & green color palette when it comes to the text.

I hope this design inspires some of you to tackle your own holiday card soon :)
