Hello! There’s something comforting about classic Christmas imagery, and this card celebrates the season with timeless botanical details. Using several Elizabeth Craft Designs die sets, I created an arrangement of robins perched among holly, pine, berries, and branch, all die-cut from soft finish cardstock and colored with Distress Oxide inks for a realistic look. A detailed frame helps draw the eye to the focal points, and softly patterned paper in the background adds texture and warmth without overpowering the design. Finished with the “Joy to the World” sentiment, the card feels both peaceful and quietly celebratory.
-
- To begin, cover a 6″ square card base with patterned paper.
- Cut the Joyous Ornament Round detailed frame from Lawn Fawn Speckled Eggshell cardstock. Use the plain circle die in the same set to cut patterned paper. Add patterned paper to the frame piece, add the assembly to the prepared card base.
- Stamp the Joyous Christmas sentiment in Potting Soil on Lawn Fawn Speckled Eggshell cardstock and cut with a Layered Labels die. Add to the card base with foam adhesive.
- Cut the Festive Robin and Winter Greenery pieces from soft finish cardstock and color with Distress Oxide inks. Assemble robins and greenery items, as required. Gently shape holly leaves.
- Add elements to prepared card base.
