Sweetest Christmas Candy Canes

2022 Heart of Christmas LogoEach Monday, join me for the Heart of Christmas Blog Hop brought to you by the Art With Heart team. We will be showcasing our July-December Mini catalogue and Annual catalogue Christmas products.

Today’s card I’ve gone with the more traditional Christmas colours; Real Red, Garden Green and White with a touch of Gold!

The Sweetest Christmas Designer Series Paper features heavily in this card. I fussy cut the candy canes from the paper with Paper Snips.  Another piece of the DSP is added across the centre of the Real Red card base.

A Basic White square is die cut (Stylish Shapes dies) and embossed with the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder. This is glued to the card with Tombo Multipurpose Glue. Some Specialty Gold Trim is added with a glue dot placed in the centre of the square. A 2cm strip of Distressed Gold Specialty Paper is added across the bottom of the DSP before the candy canes are added on dimensionals

To finish off, I stamped the sentiment with Versamark Ink onto Garden Green card, White Emboss Powder added and melted with the Heal Tool. This was cut using the banner from the Stylish Shapes dies and added with dimensionals. A strip of DSP is added to the inside panel insert.

  1. What a fabulous traditional Christmas card. I love it Kate. I particularly like the way you have embossed the square and rotated it to form a diamond. Works so well with your criss-crossed candy canes.

  2. Such a fabulous traditional coloured Christmas card, Kate, with clean lines and lots of lovely texture. It’s such a great way to show how you can create a card with DSP even if you don’t have the dies.

  3. Love your card Kate, all the layers and textures. The different papers you used make it such a fabulous card! I have been trying not to get the candy canes but the more I see the more I am convinced I need them!
