Hello fellow stampers! Welcome back to this week’s Heart of Christmas Stampin’ Up! blog hop for 2025! Each week until 24 November 2025 the Art With Heart team will showcase Christmas cards and projects to inspire you to create your own.
This week’s card features a Square column fancy fold design and a Nutcracker from the Nutcracker Tags kit. This kit allows you to create twelve Christmas gift tags. But as soon as I saw this kit I immediately envisaged other possibilities such as cards!
To create this card I found a great video from a fellow Stampin’ Up! demonstrator Stamp with Melissa. I have used the same measurements but adjusted the height of my card to 14.9 cm (or 5 7/8”).
The first card features the Traditions of Christmas DSP where each DSP panel was adhered to Real Red card stock and then onto the Basic White card base.
The Christmas flowers and foliage was die cut from the DSP (so no fussy cutting there!) using the Christmas Greenery die set. The Nutcracker was assembled as per kit instructions and I just snipped off the top where the twine would have slipped through if I had used it as a tag.
The sentiment from the kit is adhered with dimensionals to the front and I also adhered some red Traditional Sparkling sequins.
This is how the card looks from above.
The second card features the Elegant Pine Snowflakes DSP. The card was assembled the same ways as the first card. I love this little cheery handsome fella!
