Tis the Season

October 15, 2022

Hello, Marla here with another Christmas card featuring ECD Beautiful Blooms “Noel” stamps and dies. I love the greenery in this stamp set and chose the large mistletoe as the focal point for this card. Instead of the traditional hanging mistletoe, I took a different approach and used it in my potted plant. Let’s get started.

I began by stamping and coloring my mistletoe and pine branches using Copic markers. Next I added “Diamond” stickles to the pine branches and Nuvo “Morning Dew” clear drops to the berries on the mistletoe and then set it aside to dry.

Next, on a 4″ x 5.25″ piece of white cardstock I used the “Merry Christmas” sentiment and red ink to repeat stamp the sentiment. I added foam tape to the back of the panel and adhered it to an A2 red card base. Then I cut a 2″ x 4″ piece of red polka dot patterned paper and adhered it horizontally to the center of the layered card panel.

Moving on to the container I die cut the “Flower Pot/Bucket” from silver metallic cardstock and added “Black Soot” Distress Ink to give it a weathered look. I wrapped a thin ribbon around the center of the pot and added a bow and small tag. After inserting the mistletoe and pine branches, I added foam tape to the back and adhered it to my card panel.

To finish the card, I cut a piece of white cardstock using the “Leave the Doily” die. I cut it in half and adhered each half to the right and left sides of the potted plant. For more sparkle I added dots of red Stickles .

That completes my card for today. I have linked the products below for quick and easy shopping. Until next time…… Marla
