The Sweet Candy Canes bundle makes it very easy to whip up these cards pretty quickly — great for when you want to make a bunch of cards with little time to do it.
With the holidays approaching, I’ll be making Christmas cards and projects on my videos for the next several weeks. I’m here every Tuesday at 2 p.m. ET, so I hope you will be able to join me then.
