Thinking of You This Season - Holiday Card

Today’s card is a Christmas card using the Winter Woods stamps and the coordinating In The Woods dies from Stampin’ Up.

The angle shows the dimension you get from the tree and the background embossing. Mixing all the layers gives the card depth. Plus I like to add a little bling with the gold glitter enamel gems,

Don’t forget to decorate the inside of the card. I used the coordinating designer series paper and stamped the pine tree off the side to allow for space for a holiday message.

Christmas Tuesday!

I’m back with another fun and simple Christmas card for you. The designer paper may not be available but you can easily swap any other paper and coordinating cardstock to achieve a similar look.

Most of my cards are pretty simple. Here I’m mixing different coordinating designer series paper (unfortunately retired) with layers to add dimension and some simple stamping to add interest.

This close up shows the crisp definition of the stamping of the sentiment using Cherry Cobbler ink and the first and second generation stamping of the trees using Shaded Spruce ink. Simply layer rectangles cuts with solid coordinating card stock mats and you have a lovely card with some very basic stamping that anyone would appreciate getting for Christmas.

Stuff I used here that's still available from Stampin’ Up:

Ink: Cherry Cobbler, Shaded Spruce

Paper: Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White

Christmas Tuesday

Another Christmas card for you on this lovely Tuesday in February. All the goodies in this one are retired except the yummy ink and paper. But I just love the super simple layout of the card. Very easy to copy for your own card, whether it’s for a Christmas card any card!

To get the lighter shade for my stamped ornaments I stamped off once and then stamped the image on my cardstock. That way the sentiment stood out when I stamped it at full strength with Pretty Peacock ink.
