Hello and welcome to my studio~ So, today marks Days 8-9 & 10 of my series, “12 Christmas Cards You Can Make This Year!” Yes, this post is for 3 different cards but they are so alike, and we get to the files in all the same way, that I’ve chosen to put them together in one post. These are SUPER easy cards to make as I’ve done the work for you! In just a few simple steps and with just a few supplies you can make these useful cards!
For several years, I’ve wanted to make a special card for our fabulous delivery people. They work long hours and put in an unbelievable amount of work to get our goods to us, may it be packages or mail. This year, I have finally created some unique cards to wish a Merry Christmas and to say Thank You to these people who help us out nearly every day of the year. I will share a link with you to the exact card design that is in Cricut Design Space. Due to some possible copyright issues, I have not put any specific company names on the trucks but I think the designs are self explanatory. These designs create a truck shaped card base and the decorative card front panel. The panel is a print then cut design and the base is a basic cut design.
Supplies Needed for these Cards
- Brown Card Stock x 1
- White Card Stock x 5
- Cricut Machine
- Printer
Let’s Do This!
Gather your supplies. Turn on your Cricut machine. Then choose which design you’re going to make.
BROWN DELIVERY TRUCK
Grab a piece of white card stock and place it in the printer. And go ahead and ready a piece of heavy brown card stock and use this link- it should take you to my card design in CDS. https://design.cricut.com/landing/project-detail/674f1b2e744f50c7c2be5683
Once the front card panel is printed, allow the machine to cut out the design. Then place the brown card stock onto the cutting mat and the Cricut will cut the truck shaped card base. Then simply glue the front panel onto the card base, stamp or write a message inside and there you go. This is a cute way so show how much we value our UPS delivery people! You could also add a gift card as a Christmas gift. Easy right?
WHITE DELIVERY TRUCK
Grab a piece of white card stock and place it in the printer. And go ahead and ready a piece of heavy WHITE card stock for the base. Then go to this link…https://design.cricut.com/landing/project-detail/674f2349891f2b34aa72b004
Once the front panel has been printed then cut, adhere it to the white truck shaped card stock base and stamp or write a message inside and there you have it! A cute Christmas card to show our appreciation for our mail carriers!
BLUE DELIVERY VAN
Grab a piece of white card stock and place it in your printer. Then grab another piece of card stock for the base.
Now use this link:https://design.cricut.com/landing/project-detail/674f29df9b54e29865188f57
Once the blue panel has been printed and cut, go ahead and cut the white truck shaped base for the card. Then adhere the blue panel to the front of the card base and here we have a blue delivery van Christmas card to give our Amazon drivers!
There are more companies that deliver our goods to us and offer such wonderful service. I plan to make more cards for these guys in the near future!
All we have to do is place these SCALABLE cards into the appropriate envelopes, label the front for who it’s for and tape them on your front door or leave the mail carrier one in your mailbox for them to find! I always leave a card and gift for my mail carrier and delivery people every Christmas and they really appreciate it! This year they’re getting these adorable truck themed cards and I know they’re gonna love them!
I hope you have enjoyed today’s projects as much as I have! Go ahead and give them a try and see how easy they are to make and show some thankfulness and love to our very busy delivery drivers! And just remember- Always Keep it Krafty!!
