Good Wednesday morning stamping friends. How is your week going? We’re halfway through and on our way to the weekend.

I have a fun Christmas card for you today that is really very easy. I am loving the new products from the September-December Mini Catalog and the September Online Exclusives. How about you, what’s your favorite?  If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

I used the adorable Stampin’ Up! Festive Friends Bundle along with the Stampin’ Up! Traditional Labels Bundle and Christmas Tags & More Mix & Match 6 x 6 Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Adhere 3 panels of Christmas Tags & More DSP to a Real Red mat with Liquid Glue. Adhere the layered panel to a Crumb Cake card base with Stampin’ Seal.

Using the Traditional Labels Dies, cut the banner die from a panel of Basic White. Stamp the sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Traditional Labels Photopolymer Stamp Set in Garden Green Ink. Adhere the sentiment to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White stamp, the elf image from the Stampin’ Up! Festive Friends Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. Color the image with Basic Black, Crumb Cake, Ivory, Granny Apple Green, Real Red and Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Blends Markers. To get the elves outfit Garden Green, first color it with Dark Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Blends Marker then go over it with Dark Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends Marker. I got this tip from a post the Patty Bennet from Patty Stamps posted with the missing colors Stampin’ Blends Markers. Cut the image using the Festive Friends Dies. Adhere the elf to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a few Dear Dots to the card front.

Stamp the sentiments from the Traditional Labels stamp set in garden Green Ink on a panel of Basic White. Stamp the tree image from the Festive Friends stamp set in Garden Green Ink on the bottom of the panel. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Real Red mat then to the inside of the Crumb Cake card base.

Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope for finish your card. Stamp the tree image from the Festive Friends stamp set in Garden Green Ink on the envelope front. Adhere a panel of Christmas Tags & More DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like the card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!
