Today’s project shows how to make an easy Hanukkah card without a Hanukkah stamp. This idea was CASEd from a card by Yapha Mason. Take a look.
I depicted a traditional Hanukkiah. It’s often called a menorah, but has room for 9 candles. According to tradition, 8 are of one height, while the 9th is higher.
I made the candles from strips of All is Clam Designer Washi Tape. I left the tops jagged on purpose so that they give the impression of the wax burning down.
The flames are made by punching hearts from the Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack and then cutting them in half. Clever, don’t you think? Oops. I just realized that I forgot to add some glitter to the flames. Ahhh. Hanukkah card version 2.0.
Colors are Night of Navy, Silver and Daffodil Delight. For even a little more fun, I lined the envelope with paper from the Regals Designer Series Paper Stack. Love that special touch. What do you think?
So, if you have a few Hanukkah cards to send, but don’t own a Hanukkah stamp set, don’t panic. Try this design for your card. You can use ribbons or strips of card stock and paper. Any long rectangles will do.
I just realized that long ago I designed another Hanukkah card without using a Hanukkah stamp. See it here.
It’s truly an easy Hanukkah card without a Hanukkah stamp – perfect for this busy holiday season!
