For my last Christmas Card of the year I used the Christmas Village Slimline Card SVG cutting file from Simply Crafty SVGs. I love making cards in a limited colour palette, and I think that this design works very well using white card in various textures, with a little extra silver and gold glimmer.
I've cut the card parts as per the cut file with the addition of a local landmark - The Scolty Tower and Hill above Banchory in Royal Deeside, Scotland. It is such fun to adapt card designs in this way!
Materials Used:
White Medium-Weight Textured Cardstock
White Medium-Weight Smooth Cardstock

Silver and Gold Glitter Paper (mine is glitter wallpaper)

This year, I'm supporting the Cards for Kindness initiative, and I'm sending my extra Christmas cards to care homes where some folks don't have family to send them cards. For those of you in the UK there is a Facebook group with card ideas ideas, hints on Covid card safety, and various call outs for cards. They share a link which gives addresses of Care Homes all over the UK. I'm sure there is something similar in most countries, although there isn't much time left!
This is the file I used. Just click on the photo to visit the page in Simply Crafty SVGs online store.
