I’m a big fan of kits. So when I was challenged to change up the elements in the beautiful Timeless Tidings Holiday card kit featured in the 2018 Holiday Catalog to make twice as many cards, I dove right in and did just that. And the only extra supplies I added were 13 sheets of neutral 8-1/2″ x 11″ cardstock and 20 Whisper White envelopes.
I demonstrated my new card designs and how I made them in my latest Facebook Live broadcast this past Wednesday. Then I uploaded the recorded version of this video to my YouTube channel (since I know not everyone is ON Facebook). Be sure to watch the video (you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog), check out the measurements and full products list below, scroll through the close-up photos of these cards, and then let me know if you have any questions.
Here are the measurements you’ll need if you plan to recreate the cards I demonstrated. And below are close-up photos of each card design.

And these ideas were especially delightful since I have been hesitating to follow the basic kit and have two sitting on my desk.
You just brought tears to my eyes, Grandy! Thank you for this super sweet compliment. You made my day.
Rachel, I had debated for a long time about getting this card kit, but finally I ordered it and so glad that I did. I just love the way you changed these cards to double the amount. They are really, really cute and so anxious to get started on them. Thank you so much for the great effort you make in designing these alternate cards.
Thank you Linda! I’m so glad you enjoyed what i shared. 🙂
Rachel, I love what you did with the cards to make more of the timeless tidings kit. You are so creative and I love it.
Thanks from California.
