That’s right, we’re prepping for Christmas! With how busy our holiday crafting schedules can get every year; we could all use a head start! We’re kicking off this year’s Christmas season making cards with the Joy of the Season kit. The best part—the cards we’re making come together so quickly that you could probably assemble all 20 from one kit in less than an hour!

The Joy of the Season card kit is part of our Cut Above^® program, which means it comes with everything you need to make 20 polished handmade cards, 10 each of two designs, in no time!

Along with the pre-printed card bases, die-cuts, and envelopes, included with each kit is an easy-to-follow instructional/inspirational guide. As Monica illustrated in the video above, these cards are very simple to assemble. Once you start putting together one, the rest will come together intuitively.

After you’re through assembling the card fronts just the way you like them, choose a perfect sentiment from the Joy of the Season stamp set to add to the insides.

Both, the stamp set and card kit, are available for purchase on their own or together. Whatever your holiday card needs this Christmas season are, we’ve got you covered!

If you’re a busy experienced card maker or someone who’s been hesitant to give cardmaking a try, the Joy of the Season cards are especially wonderful because, with just a small amount of effort, you can create stunning cards quickly and with ease. That’s the purpose of a Cut Above experience!

Cut Above kits aren’t just for card makers. For our scrappers (we haven’t forgotten about you!), we’ve got a sneak peek of a Christmas themed Cut Above layout kit coming out in our November–December catalog that is to swoon for!

Just like their card kit counterparts, the scrapbooking Cut Above kits come with all the necessary pieces to skip right to the assembly portion of the craft! All you need to add to the mix is your favorite adhesive.

The Cut Above layout kit being released on the first of November includes pre-printed base pages and die-cuts, stickers, pre-cut paper pieces, photo placeholders, and printed instructions that come together to create two coordinating 12″ x 12″ two-page layouts.

Not only is this layout kit perfect for scrapbooking your holiday memories, but it makes a great Christmas gift, as well! Gift it assembled, with or without photos, or unassembled, inviting someone to participate in the art of memory keeping.

Cut Above is the perfect solution for those who enjoy the art of cardmaking and scrapbooking but are also looking for a quicker alternative. Even if you’re a die-hard decorative card maker or scrapper who loves to spend hours on a project, Cut Above kits are great for celebrating relationships and for catching up on documenting your stories without sacrificing quality. The Cut Above experience is a win-win!
