Yesterday was a blog hop & I used the Traditions of Christmas SDSP for my focal point. Today – still the same package of Designer Series Paper, but used very differently. First of all, there is a coordinating stamp & die bundle that coordinates and die cuts images in the paper – the Christmas Greenery bundle, available Sep 3 in the Sep-Dec 2025 Mini Catalog.

I began with one of those die cuts – of this beautiful ‘swag’. I then stamped some extra leaves from the Christmas Greenery stamp set in Old Olive ink on Old Olive card stock scraps – and die cut them as well. I adhered the ‘swag’ with dimensionals and the leaves directly to a Basic White panel. Next I die cut this gorgeous bow from Real Red and adhered it together, placed a cut dimensional and put it in place. Pulling out another bundle that coordinates is the Traditional Labels bundle that has all sentiments and label dies. I stamped on Basic White in Real Red ink, then die cut the label – love this curve die! I also die cut the same lable from Old Olive cardstock, cut it min half lengthwise to give a ‘shadow effect’ or frame to the white label. I added this to the card front with dimensionals. Once that was inn place, I felt the white space was ‘too white’ – too much white space (for me). So I pulled out the Christmas Greenery stamp that had the three berries and stamped those in Real Red all over the open spaces. As a final touch I added Traditional Sparkling Sequins in gold to the sentiment banner. This entire panel was adhered to an Old Olive card base.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Traditional Labels stamp set in Old Olive on a Basic White panel, then added berries in Real Red using the Christmas Greenery stamp set. This was adhered to the inside of the card – and done!

For the envelope… more of the Traditions of Christmas SDSP but using this fun olive plaid pattern, was adhered to the flap & trimmed to fit.
