Hi everyone! Have you started on your Christmas card stash yet? I’m working away dreaming of all the fun stuff there is out there to make!
Today’s card is a couple new dies and a sentiment from a new stamp set that I used on a previous card.
I die cut the new Florentina Wreath in heavyweight white cardstock and colored it with Copics.
Then I decided to inlay it back into the white panel that I die cut it from! I love how it looks! Hopefully you can see it in some of my pictures.
I wish I’d used a lighter brown for the branch so the red berries would’ve shown up better but the dot of white gel pen did help!
Very easy to inlay back in because there’s only the outside panel and the inside panel pieces to piece the wreath back into! Super easy and classy looking! That word gives me another idea… die cutting the wreath and then using embossing ink, gold embossing powder and heat embossing to make the wreath gold!
This is an A2 size card… the wreath panel is 4 x 5 ¼ in. then the black mat layer is just a teeny border and the cardbase is 5 ½ x 8 ½ in. folded and scored.
Very traditional again but festive and CAS too!
The sentiment is white embossing powder on TE oreo cardstock and from the new Festive Christmas Greetings stamp set.
Holler if you have any questions…I’m sure I forgot something. lol
OH! The die cut Merry Christmas is a beautiful new die, Merry Christmas Posh Script! I die cut it in TE Cherry Pop and white cardstock.
I cut narrow pieces of foam mounting tape for the back and adhered it over the inlaid wreath.
Thank you for stopping by! Thinking….what to make next!
Here’s what I used to make this card…

Very ” Christmasy”. Don’t know if that is a word but sounds good.
Beautiful card, like all the dimension you achieved Pam.
Beautiful!!!
Beautiful! Looks like a fancy Nordic card!
Very festive, beautiful card. Started my Christmas cards but keep getting more ideas I might get them done before Christmas.
So neat-and I think I have a die cut wreath very close to this one!! I will have to try this. Just got my Halloween cards finished last night! Whew. I don’t know how much longer I can keep this up-ha ha!!
I LOVE the inlay! That is such a cool look! A very festive and colorful card with the pretty wreath and layered sentiment. I’ve been working on mine all year, but now is the time to really get cracking!
Pam this is so beautiful – love how you highlighted the berries – they literally pop off my monitor in spectacular fashion. Such a gorgeous Christmas card!!!
Traditional – maybe; gorgeous – YES!
So pretty! I love the inlaid die cuts. You do such a beautiful job of it! Thanks for sharing!
Another Christmas beauty!! I love the inlaid technique and the red and green are so striking on the white background!!
I like this one a lot!!!
Okay, here you go again…just when I think you can’t make a prettier card, you go and do it! OH MY GOSH, Pam, this is stunning! My favorite so far this year!
