I’m always giddy when a simply layout works well for a card. The card I’m sharing today isn’t complex and doesn’t take long to create, but I hope you like it as much as I do. Here’s the card I’m sharing with you today:
This card started with the Leaves of Holly Bundle, new in Stampin’ Up!’s July-December 2022 Mini Catalog. The layered holly leaves and berries are beautifully simple together (and a wonderful symbol for Christmas), and I love the sweet, simple sentiment that I stamped directly on this Designer Series Paper background. Here’s a look at the Leaves of Holly Bundle:
I love this bundle! The star of the coordinating Holly Berry Dies is the gorgeous label with two holly leaves on one end. I used that die on the previously shared card below (you can click on the card to see my original post for this project):
Since the panel of red poinsettias comes from the coordinating Boughs of Holly Designer Series Paper, you might think the Soft Sea Foam hollies on today’s card also come from this pack of papers. You thought that, didn’t you? Well, this gorgeous panel is actually from the Painted Christmas Designer Series Paper, a “returning favorite” in the July-December 2022 Mini Catalog. Here’s a look at the colors and patterns in this pack of papers:
The holly leaves on my card are layered with two greens (Soft Sea Foam and Garden Green), and the holly berries are layered with two red (Real Red and Poppy Parade). Such beautiful combinations, don’t you think? Here’s a closer look:
If you like this mix of Soft Sea Foam, Garden Green and Real Red as much as I do, I hope you’ll save this for future reference:
Bundles: Leaves of Holly Stamp Sets: Leaves of Holly Papers: Painted Christmas Designer Series Paper, Soft Sea Foam, Garden Green, Real Red, Poppy Parade Inks: Memento Tuxedo Black Accessories: Holly Berry Dies, Deckled Rectangles Dies, Stampin’ Dimensionals

I’m such a fan of the retro yet traditional vibe of this bundle. Pretty card!
Your color combo is very pretty with the nice font of the sentiment. The two-piece holly leaves and berries are very striking. Enjoy your day!
I just love a deckled edge and all your layers. Pretty card. Glad this suite is on my list and you are giving great inspiration!
This card is on my list of cards to CASE for the upcoming holidays.
LOVE IT!!!!!
Lovely card today! Great holiday colors and charm. Good inspiration too! Thanks for the idea!!
I’m with Kadie~This is SO very CASE-able! I love the kiss of Poppy Parade on the berries. It’s like a subtle exclamation point to your color combo. Love this!
