The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left.
I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White card stock and textured it using the "Jolly Holly" embossing folder.
A 2" x 5-1/4" piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Christmas Tags & More" 6" x 6" package was taped to the left side of the card. I think the "& More" is all the fun DSP that's in this package.
The wreath is from the same "Christmas Tags & More" package. And the "Joy" in the center is from the "Greetings for You Mix & Match Ephemera" package. It's a sticker and I actually removed the backing this tie and stuck it to the center of the wreath.
I took some thin gold thread and wrapped it around my fingers 6 times. Using a large glue dot I stuck the thread to it and set it aside while I added Dimensionals to the back of the round wreath piece. Once the backing was removed on the Dimensionals I set the thread in place on the back and then I set it in place on the front of the card.
A bow was added from the same "Christmas Tags & More" package. I cut tiny pieces of Dimensionals and added it to the back and then set the bow in place.
There are some holly leaves in the "Christmas Tags & More" package and I took one and glued it to the bottom right corner of the card.
I thought the card could use some bling but I wasn't sure what to add. I ended up adding a bit of glue to the center of the hollies and sprinkled ultra fine red glitter on them. And that was it, the card was done.
This was a very quick and easy card to make. I have lots of pieces left in both of those package and I will probably be making more Christmas cards until it's used up. I need to make 2026 a year that I actually use up stuff! Wouldn't that be a great accomplishment? It would be for me. Wish me luck!
Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's Christmas card,
Wanda
