Heart of Christmas Week 17: A Little Bit Festive Quick cards

Heart of Christmas Header 2024 - 1

I’m thrilled you are here to join us for our final AWHT Heart of Christmas Blog Hop for 2024 showcasing Stampin’ Up! seasonal products. If you have left your Christmas card making to the last minute, read on to see how you can create all of these in one afternoon!

Week 17

Today I feature the A Little Bit Festive SDSP  and the Gold Dipped Cards & Envelopes for some very quick and easy Christmas cards. These are great examples for those who are starting out on their cardmaking journey or if you are time poor in the leadup to the festive season, we all know that feeling, right?! It’s my mission to show you how easy and stress-free cardmaking can be (without needing a ton of supplies or fancy tools).

Heart of Christmas Week 12: A Little Bit Festive

Heart of Christmas Header 2024 - 1

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 12

Today I feature the A Little Bit Festive Mix & Match Specialty Designer Series Paper (DSP). It has three sheets of double-sided 12 x 12 patterned papers with festive Christmas designs on one side and all-purpose patterns on the other. And it also has three sheets of die-cut Christmas elements that you can use on card fronts or to frame photos on scrapbook pages—stockings, wreaths, Christmas trees, and more.

A Little Bit Festive SDSP 164107

Card 1 – a simple strip of patterned paper on a Gold Foil matt down the centre. A diecut Garden Green circle with one of the elements attached on Dimensionals and a white circle with the lovely sentiment to finish the card.

Card 2 – I love this gingham patterned paper so I covered the entire card front. A large Basic White circle [Spotlight on Nature dies] is die cut and three of the elements attached. The sentiment is Gold heat embossed. Under the circle, is some of the beautiful Cherry Cobbler & Gold Satin Ribbon. Some star elements are added.

Card 3 – Another simple layout with some of the Season of Elegance Specialty DSP cut into 2cm strips and adhered to some Basic White card, then added to the Cherry Cobbler card base. A Gold heat embossed sentiment on Cherry Cobbler card punched out with a 1¾” circle punch and adhered to the wreath element. This is adhered on Dimensionals. Some lovely gold sequins from the Neutrals pack finishes it off.
