Heart of Christmas 8: Poinsettia card

Welcome to the Heart of Christmas blog hop for 2025!
I’m thrilled you are here to join us each Monday evening for the AWHT Heart of Christmas Blog Hop showcasing Stampin’ Up! seasonal products.

Week 8: Poinsettia card

This handmade card features Christmas Greenery stamp set, the Traditional Labels stamp set and the Foiled Frames & Labels Ephemera Pack.

A LITTLE ‘WHY’ ABOUT THIS CARD
A very simple card with some stamps, ink & paper!

How you can re-create this card

1. Create the base – a Cherry Cobbler card base, 29.7cm x 10.5cm, scored @ 14.8cm.

2. Stamp – on a Basic White card 11cm x 8cm, stamp the poinsetta image [Christmas Greenery stamp set] around the edges in Cherry Cobbler ink, then the leaves in Old Olive ink. Also stamp these images on the bottom left corner of your envelope. Stamp the sentiment in Secret Sea ink onto a gold label from the Foiled Frames & Labels Ephemera Pack.

3. Layering – a piece of Gold Foil 12cm x 9cm is adhered to the centre of the card base, then the stamped layer.

4. Add the sentiment on Stampin’ Dimensionals to the centre of the card.

5. Finishing touches – some Traditional Sparkling Sequins are added in a triangular placement.

Many of us also participate in the Colour Creations Instagram hop that goes live every Wednesday night. We showcase one SU colour each week. We would love you to follow us!

Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join me next Monday for more Chrismas inspiration.

  1. Lovely card, Kate. I must admit I haven’t used the stamps in this bundle, but it provides a whole other set of options. Love the new blog look, too.
