Create Stunning Christmas Cards with This Surprising Technique

 Hi Friends!

Let’s add some holiday cheer with a handmade Christmas card that’s just as fun to make as it is to give! During my latest live stamping demonstration, I featured this bold and beautiful “Merry Christmas” card using the Jolly Holly Hybrid bundle, Party Alphabet dies, and the Season of Green & Gold Specialty Paper (now retired).

At first glance, this festive card looks simple, but don’t be fooled—there’s a sneaky little technique hiding in there that makes it extra special! I’ll walk you through exactly how to create this look during the video tutorial, and we’ll even kick things up a notch by making a second version using a jaw-dropping new paper that’s coming in the September–December Mini Catalogue. Oh my goodness, it is SO good—you’re going to want it all!

I love how the large die-cut “M” and “C” create the perfect canvas for the greenery and shimmer from the Season of Green & Gold paper to shine. Layering them over a holly-embossed background gives the card texture and depth, while those stitched sentiment blocks bring everything together with a polished finish.

If you want a Christmas card that’s fresh, fun, and fabulously festive, this one’s for you. Whether you're crafting for friends, family, or your own card stash, this is a holiday design you’ll come back to again and again.
