Festive Friday: Graceful Evergreen Deer Christmas Card

Leave a comment

It’s Festive Friday, and I’m sharing a Christmas card featuring the brand new Graceful Evergreen Deer Bundle.

I have to admit, I am a little obsessed with hot foiling right now, so of course I had to add some shine to this card! I used gold hot foil for that gorgeous deer and red hot foil with the Magical Christmas Hot Foil Dies for the sentiment.

I kept the rest of the card crisp and mostly white, with Secret Sea and touches of gold. The little snowflakes in the winter sky were heat embossed in gold for just a bit more sparkle.

For the background, I die cut the arch from the Basic White layer before embossing it. I adhered the embossed outer piece flat to the card base and then popped the stamped arch back into place with Dimensionals. I love the texture this adds while still keeping the card fairly clean and simple.

Those little Secret Sea snowflake embellishments are new too — and you’ll be seeing them again in my upcoming Holly Jolly Branches MEGA Stamp Camp!

Another Christmas card ready for my stash — and I’m pretty sure there will be lots more hot foil coming! 😊

Festive Friday: A Little Woodland Christmas Magic

Leave a comment

It’s Festive Friday, and I have another Christmas card to share with you! 🎄

I’m having so much fun getting a head start on my Christmas cards, and this one features the adorable Woodland Wishes stamp set.

There’s something about these little woodland images that makes me smile. The sweet little deer and bird make such a fun focal point, and I love how the soft, natural colours give this card a cozy woodland feel.

A pop of Real Red from the sentiment and those fun Adhesive-Backed Christmas Berries adds just enough Christmas colour, while the little bit of Linen Thread gives it a rustic finishing touch.

This one feels like Christmas in the woods to me—and I think it would be a fun design to make multiples of for your Christmas card stash!

Festive Friday – Modern Christmas Elegance

It’s time for another Festive Friday inspiration! Today’s card showcases the Modern Christmas Bundle—a gorgeous set that captures the beauty of minimal design and festive sparkle.

This card is a perfect example of how less can be more! If you love elegant holiday cards that are quick to make but still make a statement, this bundle is a must-have.

Modern Christmas Suite – Wishing You Peace & Joy

Leave a comment

I had so much fun creating this beautiful Christmas card during my Live today! The Modern Christmas Suite is full of timeless holiday images and coordinating dies, making it perfect for elegant cards like this one. Pairing gold with black and white creates a bold, festive look that really shines.

Here’s how you can make this card yourself:

  • Start with a Thick Basic White card base (5-1/2″ X 8-1/2″, scored at 4-1/4″).
  • Adhere the Modern Christmas DSP (tree pattern – 4″ X 5-1/4″) to the card front.
  • Die cut the 4th largest Everyday Arch in both Basic Black cardstock and the 5th largest in Basic White cardstock. Layer the two so the black peeks out slightly behind the white for dimension. Adhere to the cardfront.
  • Fussy cut the three ornament images from the DSP and adhere to the arch using Dimensionals.
  • Stamp the sentiment “Wishing You Peace & Joy” in Versamark and heat emboss with gold on a Basic White strip.
  • Make a large bow from the black-and-gold twine and attach to the back of the sentiment strip.
  • Adhere the sentiment strip and bow across the bottom of the arch with Dimensionals.
  • Add gold sequins for a finishing touch.

Here is a full supply list ( or just scroll down to register for the stamp camp!):
