Hi everyone! Have you counted your Christmas card stash yet? I haven’t! I haven’t kept up very well with my policy of finishing the insides either! I will be sorry yet again this year! lol
A very easy die cut card A2 size today. I cut this NEW poppy Nordic Wintertide Border Set three times for the wider border and three times for the narrow border. Next time I will just space them better so I don’t have the piece I had to trim at the top.
Believe it or not these dies cut very well! I die cut with the blades up, and angle the die into the machine. Try it! It works!
I pieced together the NEW poppy Nordic Stockings and Merry Christmas Moonlight Script dies…very straight forward/easy!
I used the NEW Memory Box red cardstock!!! OH wow! This cardstock is beautiful! Dave sent several colors and I can’t wait to use them! 8.5 x 11 size!!! yahoo!
Here’s a video showing the colors!
I die cut a vellum circle to put behind the sentiment and stockings, it just needed it!
Linking to some card challenges…
A Cut Above – anything goes with a die cut
The Paper Shelter #609 – punches and/or dies
ABC Christmas – S and T, T for traditional colors
Sparkles Christmas – sentiment as the focus
There you have it! A festive, easy card and I didn’t even have to fill the stockings! Although I think they’d be super cute with stuff in them, I just couldn’t land on anything. I tried adding poinsettias but nope, didn’t suit my eye!
Off to work on some more Christmas cheer! Thank you so much for stopping by!
Here’s the products I used to make this card…

Stunning card Pam!
Oh my goodness – this certainly looks Nordic!!! Absolutely gorgeous, dear friend! Thanks for sharing with us – it’s dreary and rainy here, and this bright, beautiful creation just brightened my day!
Perfect for Christmas! Love it!
Very Cute!!!
Fun card, Pam, I love all the detail in those borders plus the cute little stockings! And oh yes, that red cardstock is gorgeous
Wow, gorgeous Christmas card. The red makes a great background color with all of the white die cut borders. The angled sentiment looks great. I love Poppy Stamp Die cuts. Thanks for sharing at A Cut Above’s September, Anything Goes With A Die Cut and optional Monochromatic Challenge.
Gorgeous Christmas card in traditional colors. The red makes a beautiful background for the white die cut border strips. The angled sentiment looks awesome. Beautiful design and I love Poppy Stamp dies too.
This is so cute and eye catching! I love the stockings and sentiment on an angle, and the border plate makes a gorgeous background. I have always loved a crisp red and white combo. You made me count my Christmas cards and it spooked me a little. I need to get a move on!
Oh my! This is just gorgeous! I love the addition of the vellum circle. The red and white contrast is beautiful. Thanks for sharing this with us at The Paper Shelter!

Oh the colors are more accurate on the video – you are so right! You have such a gift for combining the craft dies – these stockings with the background is spectacular, and loving the vellum!!
That is adorable Pam! Hmmm, I wasn’t going to buy any new Christmas things (I have so many!) except for what I already bought, but I just may have to change my mind! LOL! Thanks so much for sharing!
What a stunning festive card! It’s so bright and full of Christmas cheer and I love it.
Thanks for joining us at ABC Christmas Challenges and I hope you will join us again soon.
