DIY Christmas cards are a great way to spread holiday cheer. This Traditional Noel DIY Christmas Card will mean so much to the recipient and will signify peace and goodwill during the holiday season. Though the red and green cardstock colors are in line with the season, the overall design is cool and unexpected. Plus, you can adhere rhinestones to the front of the card for a sparkly finish. Send this card to a family member or friend and be sure to include a thoughtful message. Handmade Christmas cards always manage to find a spot on a fridge or mantel and are often saved for years to come.

What better way to share your creativity and use traditional holiday items, right? I love that your card has the red and green that everyone loves during Christmas time. I want to make a ton of these to hand out at work and mail to family members. They are so pretty and fun to make.
