Peace Card with Xyron

Hello Crafty Friends!  Are you making Christmas Cards yet?  This week Xyron is all about CARDS!!! The best part is the Xyron Team is having a  Xyron Hashtag Challenge this week and it is in full swing on Instagram! If you are unfamiliar with a Hashtag Challenge, its basically where a ‘’challenge’’ is announced each week, and you guys use the #hollyjollyxyron to share your projects that go with that challenge Then, once the challenge week is up, the Xyron Design Team will pick a winner of the challenge and that person will be featured on all of our Instagram pages AND will win a Xyron Creative Station! So join us on Xyron to do the #hollyjollycards Challenge this week. Load those cards up and follow along with the Xyron and the team!

Today I am sharing with you an easy, vintage feeling card that I created by doing a bit of distressing and inking of my papers.


Begin your card by first cutting card stock and pattern paper to fit the front of your card base. Distress the edges of all the pieces with distress tool, ink edges with Colorbox Nutmeg Blend ink. Adhere all pieces to top of card base using Xyron Mega Tape Runner. 


Run a piece of ribbon through the Xyron 1.5" Sticker Maker; place on front of card.


Die cut "Peace" from card stock; run through Xyron 1.5" Sticker Maker and add to front of card.


Cut pattern paper and card stock to create a strip for the top of card front. Repeat the distressing and inking method on all pieces. Adhere together with Xyron Mega Tape Runner. 


Die cut doily and punch scallop circle out of card stock. Run both pieces through Xyron 3" Disposable Sticker Maker. 



Adhere the doily to the scallop circle. Add to front of card front.


Stamp image to white card stock. Distress and ink edges; mat of distress and ink mats. Adhere together the Xyron Mega Tape Runner. Add to front of card with pop dots. Add bow to card.


Stamp second image on white card stock; color with markers. Fussy cut image and add to front of card with pop dots. Add enamel dots to card.


I hope you enjoyed my distress and ink technique and try it on your next project. Pam
