I love the look of dry embossing, and I LOVE how easy it is with the Big Shot and the Textured Impressions Embossing Folders. This card uses the snowflake folder "Northern Flurry" (featured in Stampin' Up!'s Holiday Mini Catalogue) and the Christmas greeting from the Perfect Punches set, which coordinates with the scallop circle punch. (Love that!!) I like this card so much, I may include it in some upcoming classes and workshops (though participants won't get to make 10 of them like they would in the Card Clinic!!)
Hope you've enjoyed the previews of the Card Clinic designs so far! I do realize, however, that some people aren't thinking ahead as far as I am, so plan on sharing some non-Christmas ideas in the next few posts, too. All the Christmas Card Clinic designs are in the Card Clinic 10 photo album on the right side of the blog. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions about the clinic at all.

The return of another favourite card design! Using Stampin' Up!'s Lovely as a Tree for the main images, with the masking technique. If you didn't get a chance to make this card previously, you can choose this as your Card Clinic Design, and create 10 of them for $25. The joy of Card Clinic is that I will cut all the cardstock for you and have all the stamps and ink on hand – you just have to show up & follow the instructions and before you know it, you'll have created some beautiful handmade cards for your family and friends. Get some friends together & join us at a clinic! Contact me if you have any questions.

This image always makes me laugh…
I'm including some designs from previous Card Clinics. This one features the reindeers from the Holiday Line Up set. The spotlight technique makes this card a little faster to create – rather than colouring in the entire image, you can just colour a focal section of it.
There's still more design choices to be shown! Card Clinic Dates are starting in a few weeks! Friday, November 5th, Sunday November 7th, Saturday, November 13th, Monday November 15th or Wednesday November 17th. Contact me to reserve your spot!

A fourth design for my Christmas Card Clinic. I thought I'd use some (almost) traditional colours for this one 🙂
I used Stampin' Up!'s Outline Alphabet plus the wreath from the Hostess set Northern Hearts. The nice thing about the Clinic – you won't have to "earn" this set – you can just use mine! LOL.
Please contact me if you have any questions, or would like to create 10 of these cards for your own use at one of my Christmas Card Clinic Dates. Don't forget that the $25 includes all supplies including envelopes!

This is a tri-fold card, but if you wish, can be re-designed into a "regular" card fold, and would be taller. When you choose this design for the card clinic, please let me know if you would like it as shown here or as a regular fold card. The tri-fold card is slightly shorter than a "regular" half sheet card, but will fit into the usual medium sized Stampin' Up! envelope.
More designs still to be shared…Please contact me if you have any questions or are ready to book your spot in one of the card clinics now!

This is another option for the Christmas Card Clinic. I tried to get a more straight on shot of the front of the card…but I don't think it worked, it looks a little "wonky" to me…anyway, you get the idea, right?!
I'll continue to post different options for the clinics – remember that you pick one design, come on the clinic date that works for you, and whip off 10 cards…because I'll have precut and prepped everything for you….you just stamp, punch and assemble!
