The Elegant Pines designer series paper from Stampin’ Up is some lovely paper and this Pretty Peacock piece with the snowflake stamps from the Delicate Pines stamp and dies sets are made to be the perfect match.
To create this card, you just need a few things:
- Pretty Peacock card stock (Stampin’ Up)
- White card stock
- Elegant Pines designer series paper (October 2025 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
- Delicate Pines stamp set and dies (October 2025 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
- Party Banner Dies (Stampin’ Up)
- Pretty Peacock ink (Stampin’ Up)
- Faceted Snowflakes embellishments (October 2025 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
- Paper trimmer
- Adhesive of choice
From your Pretty Peacock card stock cut a card base to 5 ½” x 8 ½” and fold in half. From white card stock cut a piece to 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” and another for the inside to 4” x 5 ¼”. Take the Elegant Pines designer series paper pack and find the frosty Pretty Peacock piece and cut a piece to 4” x 5 ¼”.
Take a scrap piece of white card stock and cut a banner using the 2 ¼” wide die and with a piece of Pretty Peacock and the next size up banner die (2 ½” wide) cut out a background banner. Adhere the white banner piece to the Pretty Peacock banner, centering on all sides, then trim the top of the Pretty Peacock to align with the white banner. In Pretty Peacock ink with the “warmest winter wishes” greeting from the Delicate Pines stamp set stamp the greeting in the upper portion of the white banner. Then stamp a few snowflakes around and put some of the clear small size Faceted Snowflake embellishments in the center of the snowflakes.
On a spare piece of white cards stock stamp the large pine snowflake stamp, the medium snowflake stamp and the single small pine snowflake stamp in Pretty Peacock ink. Use the matching dies to cut each of them out. Use mini pop dots to layer your cut out snowflakes and place a large clear Faceted Snowflake embellishment in the center.
Adhere the larger white piece you cut to the front of your card base and then the frosty Pretty Peacock piece to the white piece. Then adhere the banner to the upper right corner aligning along the frosty Pretty Peacock paper. Now adhere the snowflake in the lower left corner over the lower left portion of your banner.
For the inside of your card adhere the smaller white piece you cut. Stamp the “Celebrate the Season” and the “It’s the most magical time of the year” stamps in the upper center of your card, with the “Celebrate the Season” on top using Pretty Peacock ink. Then stamp a few of the small snowflakes around.
What a lovely card to give anyone for the holidays.
