🎄 Modern Christmas Magic with a Pink Twist!

This week’s Facebook Live was all about modern elegance with a pink twist! I featured the stunning Modern Christmas Suite by Stampin’ Up! to create a bold yet festive design that blends pink, black, and gold—a perfect combo for anyone who loves a chic, non-traditional holiday look.

I adore how the gold embossing and delicate vellum details bring just the right amount of shimmer and sophistication. The playful trees add a touch of whimsy, while the clean sentiment—“Wishing You Peace & Joy”—keeps the message heartfelt and classic.

💗 Why You’ll Love This Card:

Modern Christmas Suite – Wishing You Peace & Joy

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!):


Catch the replay of today’s Live where I walk you through the steps and share extra tips:

Coast to Coast Creators Blog Hop – December 2023

It’s the 14th of the month – time for another Coast to Coast Creators Blog Hop! 

This month we are featuring Last Chance items. These are products that you can only order until Jan 3rd, 2024 or while supplies last. I chose to actually mix up a bunch of different products that are all retiring. On this card you will find the Joy To You stamp set, the Sending Cheer stamp set and dies, as well as the Beary Christmas DSP. These are all products that I have loved using this year. See all the details of my card below and then hop around to see all the amazing cards created by our team members!  Leave a comment and then come back to see us again on the 14th next month!

See below for a list of supplies as well as some other cards using the Sending Cheer stamp set and dies.

Please leave a comment below and make sure to follow my blog for lots more great inspiration!

Here is a full list of supplies needed to create these cards.


Paper Snips
[103579]
$15.00

The cards below were created with a similar layout, but feature the Walk In A Forest DSP. They do not have the ribbon or embossing – so they are great for a very quick card.

A perk to ordering with me in the month of December is that with any order over $65cdn, I am emailing out an amazing 37 project Tutorial Bundle. Just use the host code below. As a member of my team you get free access to this Tutorial Bundle.
