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!

Global Design Project #558 | Woodland Wishes Christmas Card

Leave a comment

This week, I’m excited to share my card for the Global Design Project #558 Sketch Challenge! I always enjoy sketch challenges because they provide a great starting point while still leaving plenty of room for creativity.

For my card, I stayed true to the sketch by creating four square panels and filling each one with an adorable woodland scene using the Woodland Wishes stamp set. Each little critter brings its own personality to the card—from the curious hedgehog and graceful deer to the sweet fox and friendly bear.

To add interest without overwhelming the design, I embossed the Basic White card base with the festive Swirls of Magic embossing folder. The subtle texture creates the perfect whimsical backdrop while allowing the stamped images to remain the focal point.

I coloured all of the images with Stampin’ Blends and layered each panel onto Old Olive cardstock to help define the layout from the sketch. A bold Real Red sentiment banner stretches across the centre, tying all four panels together while adding the perfect pop of Christmas colour. I finished the card with a few rhinestones for just a touch of sparkle.

One of my favourite things about sketch challenges is seeing how everyone interprets the same design differently. It’s amazing how a simple sketch can inspire so many unique creations!

I hope you’ll visit the Global Design Project to see all of the Design Team inspiration and then join us by creating your own version of this week’s sketch. I can’t wait to see what you make!
