There's something really satisfying about knocking out a whole stack of handmade cards in an afternoon. The easiest way to make that happen is to find a formula and stick with it. The formula for today's cards is: sentiment stamped on a die-cut circle, 3x4 piece of patterned paper, plus a smattering of shiny sequins. BOOM. Done. 

All of today's cards are on shades of purple - it's not a color I use often, but it's pretty dreamy with the snowscapes in the Winter Scenes 6x6 paper pack at Impression Obsession. (TIP: Trim the patterned paper  into three-inch widths, so you can get two cards for each sheet of 6x6 paper!)

Remember, all it takes is swapping out the paper and sentiments to create this card set for any time of year. Be sure to check out my summer version at the end of this blog post!
