Whether you're new to card making or if you've been making cards for years, here's a great Christmas card from Designer Erin Bullock.

If you're new to card making, try to make one for someone special and watch their reaction. Receiving a homemade card in the mail is a great feeling. (We keep all of the ones we receive!).

**Time:** 20 minutes![Merry Christmas Card](https://blog.gluedots.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/glue-dots-merry-christmas-card-erin-bullock-196x300.jpg?width=196&height=300&name=glue-dots-merry-christmas-card-erin-bullock-196x300.jpg)  
**Level:** Intermediate  
**Size:** 6.25" x 3.5"

**Here's what you need:**

- [Craft Glue Dots®](http://catalog.gluedots.com/item/consumer-products/craft-hobby/1001?plpver=1002)
- [Mini Glue Dots®](http://catalog.gluedots.com/item/consumer-products/craft-hobby/item-1001?plpver=1002)
- [Ultra-Thin Glue Dots®](http://catalog.gluedots.com/item/consumer-products/craft-hobby/1003?plpver=1002)
- Sewing machine
- Stapler
- Cream cardstock
- Patterned paper (green, red, brown and white chevron, brown)
- Wood shapes (Studio Calico)![Merry Christmas Card - Top Detail](https://blog.gluedots.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/glue-dots-merry-christmas-card-top-detail-300x246.jpg?width=300&height=246&name=glue-dots-merry-christmas-card-top-detail-300x246.jpg)
- Glitter glue (Stickles)
- Colored staples

**Here's what you do:**

1. Layer patterned paper onto cardstock base. Adhere using Ultra Thin Glue Dots®.[![Merry Christmas Card - Bottom Detail](https://blog.gluedots.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/glue-dots-merry-christmas-card-bottom-detail-300x300.jpg?width=300&height=300&name=glue-dots-merry-christmas-card-bottom-detail-300x300.jpg)](https://blog.gluedots.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/glue-dots-merry-christmas-card-top-detail.jpg)
2. Add stitching to various edges of paper using several stitching styles (zig-zag, stitch length, etc.)
3. Add colored staples as desired.
4. Apply Stickles to edges of pennants, allow to dry.
5. Adhere pennants to card using Mini Glue Dots®.
6. Decorate pennants as Christmas trees using Stickles, allow to dry.
7. Get creative with the crafty stash you already have. Cards are a great place to use leftover bits and bobs.

This card is extremely versatile! Imagine it flipped upside down and decorated with a party theme!

Have a very Merry Christmas,

~Erin
