Hi everyone! I’ve been gluing and gluing so I’ll have a series of cards coming with the NEW Birch Press Design Dies for this release! Yay for Christmas!
I have a lot of pictures of this one. I even remembered the inside! So this card is completely finished and ready for card sending season!
This NEW BPD stamp set is gorgeous! It’s called Glad Tidings and the font is so so pretty! My links to everything are below!
The front of this card highlights the NEW Splendid Poinsettia Contour Layers die set.
The layers go together so easily and so dramatic and detailed! I love it!
Then I used some of the other NEW dies also, Jolly Holly Contour Layers, Forest Leaf and Berries Contour Layers, Oval Leaf Branches Contour Layers and Hillside Branch and Bramble Contour Layers.
I didn’t use all the pieces I made though so more cards coming in the future! We’ll see how many cards I can make with the pieces I glued up. There’s a video on Instagram showing them HERE. It should come up even if you don’t have an account.
I die cut a piece of 6×6 plaid from the Memory Box Jolly Christmas paper pad with one of the Wrapped Scalloped Rectangles dies. I used it horizontal and trimmed off the scallops on the sides.
I made a top folding A2 size cardbase. Layered on the plaid rectangle and then the poinsettia with small pieces of the super thin mounting tape I love. I wanted to be able to add the pieces of greenery and leaves easily.
I love how it turned out. The poinsettia is die cut with paper from the Memory Box Berry Red 6×6 cardstock pad. Then I inked the edges just a little bit with Distress Worn Lipstick ink and a mini ink blending tool.
There’s some dimension but I will mail it probably with an extra ounce stamp because of the Christmas Dewdrop in the center. If you left that off, you could mail it normal because it’s under ¼ in. thick.
The warmest wishes sentiment is from the NEW Glad Tidings set also… I just love this set!
Then for that pop of white I used BPD Felicity Snowflakes on the front and on the inside.
Entering my card is some challenges…

This is so gorgeous!
Gorgeous, love the details in the flower and the arrangement, so pretty against the plaid and the kraft!
Beautiful card. BUT, all the gluing !!! LOL
Love your card, Pam! Great color and layout!
I have a few poinsettia dies but this one is quite appealing.
Will have to get it, I think.
Thanks for your inspiration.
Have a great day.
I love this! What a great card! I love the sentiment! Thanks for sharing! I don’t think we are going to cool down until later this week. Supposed to only be about 88-89 by Friday! I think we have been in the 90’s since June! LOL!
OMGosh, you remind me how much I love a warm traditional Christmas card. This is incredible! These dies look way more amazing on your card than they do in the package. That’s why good examples are key to a company’s success. You prolly sell a LOT for them! You got me looking, but I’ve had packages arriving in the mail quite a bit lately. Another coming today. I’m bad to the bone!
Beautiful inside and out!
What a WOW card. I love all of it!!
