This was another holiday card I made last year that everyone loved. It has a few small pieces to cut and put together but is so cute when it is all done that it is worth the trouble.
To create this card, you just need a few things:
- Real Red card stock (Stampin’ Up)
- Gold card stock (Stampin’ Up)
- Soft Succulent card stock (Stampin’ Up)
- Evening Evergreen card stock (Stampin’ Up)
- White card stock
- Parcel and Post Mailbox dies (Spellbinders)
- Square die with decorative edges (Stampin’ Up)
- Christmas Messages stamp set (Stempin’ Up)
- Christmas to Remember stamp set (Stampin’ Up)
- Evening Evergreen ink
- Real Red ink
- Paper trimmer
- Corner Rounder
- Adhesive of choice
- Pop dots
With the Real Red card stock cut a card base to 5 ½” x 8 ½” and fold in half to 4 ¼” x 5 ½”. With the white card stock cut the square with decorative edges from the die and adhere to the front of your card. Cut another piece of white card stock to 4” x 5 ¼”, us the corner rounder to round all four corners. Adhere to the inside of your card.
With the real red card stock cut a mailbox with the Parcel and Post mailbox dies and adhere to the front center of your card. Use all the card stock colors and various decorative dies to cut out a candy cane, peppermint candy, stems with berries, pines, holly leave and an envelope. Adhere them all decoratively in the mailbox opening.
With white cards stock cut a piece to 1 3/8” to 1 7/8” and with your Evening Evergreen ink stamp your “Wishing you a Christmas season filled with joy and laughter” from the Christmas Messages stamp set and adhere to the front of your card with pop dots, centered in the middle of your mailbox front. Also cut a white bow and a gold star and adhere that to the right side of the mailbox opening.
With Real Red ink and the Christmas to Remember stamp set greeting saying “Have a holly jolly Christmas” greeting to the inside of your card.
You now have an adorable holiday card to send to a friend or family member for some wonderful holiday wishes.
