Delicate Pines Peace This Christmas Card

No Comments

This card uses the new Delicate Pines stamp set and dies from Stampin’ Up along with the Peace This Christmas stamps for the greetings.  The Mossy Meadow speckled paper from the Elegant Pine Snowflake designer series paper that goes with the Delicate Pines set just made this a great masculine card. 

To create this card, you just need a few things:

  • Mossy Meadow card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • Baked Brown Sugar card stock (retired Stampin’ Up)
  • White card stock
  • Elegant Pine Snowflake designer series paper (September 2025 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
  • Delicate Pines stamp set and dies ((September 2025 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
  • Peace This Christmas stamp set (retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Mossy Meadow ink (Stampin’ Up)
  • Baked Brown Sugar ink (Stampin’ Up)
  • Paper trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice

From a piece of Mossy Meadow card stock cut your card base to 5 ½” x 8 ½”  and fold in half to 4 ¼” x 5 ½”.  Cut another piece to 3 ¼” x 4 ½”.  With your Baked Brown Sugar card stock cut a piece to 3’ x 4 ¼”.  Take your white card stock and cut a piece to 2 ¾” x 4” and one for the inside of your card to 4” x 5 ¼”.  Find the Mossy Meadow frosty looking paper in the Elegant Pine Snowflake designer series paper pack and cut a piece to 4” x 5 ¼”. 

Take the Mossy Meadow frosty piece and adhere to the front of your card base.  Then adhere the Mossy Meadow piece centered on the frosty piece, and the Baked Brown Sugar piece to that.  Take the white piece measuring 2 ¾” x 4” and find the pine bough stamp in the Delicate Pines stamp set and stamp twice in the upper left corner. 

Then use your Baked Brown Sugar ink to stamp the “May all your Christmas wishes come true” greeting stamp from the Peace This Christmas stamp set toward the lower right corner.  On a scrap piece of white card stock stamp two of the pine cones from the Delicate Pines stamp set in Baked Brown Sugar ink and cut out with the die.  Adhere them one slightly on the other over some of the pine boughs. Adhere this to the front of the Baked Brown Sugar piece on the front of your card.

For the inside of your card take the 4” x 5 ¼” piece of white card stock you cut and stamp two more of the pine boughs in Mossy Meadow ink, one in the upper left corner and one in the lower right corner.  In the Baked Brown Sugar ink stamp the “Peace, Joy and Love” greeting in the Upper Center.  Adhere this to the inside of your card. 

This is a masculine card but really great for anyone as it is just simply a nice card.

Delicate Pines Celebrate the Season Card

No Comments

This dark card made with the Secret Sea pines paper from the Elegant Pines designer series paper from Stampin’ Up made a great holiday card.  I love the blend of colors that just brighten it enough. 

To create this card, you just need a few things:

  • Secret Sea card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • Old Olive card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • Shaded Spruce card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • Cherry Cobbler card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • Elegant Pines designer series paper (October 2025 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
  • Delicate Pines stamp set and dies (October 2025 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
  • Words of Beauty dies (November 2025 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
  • Faceted Snowflake embellishments (October 2025 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
  • Secret Sea ink (2025-2027 In Color Stampin’ Up)
  • Paper trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice

Take a piece of Secret Sea card stock and cut a card base to 5 ½” x 8 ½” and fold in half.  From the Old Olive card stock cut a piece for the inside to 4” x 5 ¼” and a piece for your triangle to 5 ½” square, the cut from corner to corner to form two triangles.  From the Elegant Pine designer series paper cut a piece to 5 ¼” square and cut corner to corner to form two triangles.  Adhere your Secret Sea pines triangle to the Old Olive triangle, leaving an 1/8” or so edge on the two sides and lining the long edge up to each other. 

From some scrap pieces of Old Olive card stock cut the longest label from the Words of Beauty dies and two sets of leaves from the Delicate Pines dies.  Then from some Shaded Spruce card stock cut two of the pine pieces from the Delicate Pines dies and cut in half to get four.  Cut two of the floral die from Cherry Cobbler card stock. 

With the “Celebrate the Season” stamp from the Delicate Pines stamp set, stamp on the Old Olive label in Secret Sea Ink.  Adhere the label in the lower right corner of the front of your card base, leaving a very small edge.  Take your triangle piece and put adhesive on the back, then adhere to the front of your card base off-center with about ½” hanging off the bottom and close to the label and the point about ½” from the right edge, trim the excess. 

Adhere your two Old Olive leaves, then two of the Shaded Spruce pine pieces and topping with a Cherry Cobbler flower.  Use one of the large Shaded Spruce snowflake embellishments from the Faceted Snowflakes for the center of your flower and three (mixed sizes) of the Cherry Cobbler snowflakes randomly on the Secret Sea. 

For the inside of your card stamp in Secret Sea ink the “It’s the most magical time of the year” greeting in the upper portion of the Old Olive piece you cut for the inside.  Adhere to the inside of your card.  Decorate the lower left corner with pieces of the other two pine sprigs and top with the flower and put another large Shaded Spruce snowflake embellishment as the flower center. 

This is such a pretty holiday card, and is great for anyone as it isn’t Christmas specific.

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.

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.
