Welcome to week 7 of the Art with Heart Team Stampin’ Up! Heart of Christmas blog hop for 2024. I hope you we are continuing to inspiring you each week with our Christmas card ideas.
For this week’s Christmas card I’ve used the brand new Decorative Trees bundle (Decorative Trees stamp set and Decorative Trees dies). The number of stunning dies in this bundle provides opportunities for so many different colour combinations and designs of cards.
I decided to use the tree outline die to die cut some of the beautiful DSP designs in Very Vanilla and gold from the Season of Green & Gold 12″ x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Specialty Designer Series Paper.
The middle tree has been heat embossed in gold using stamps from the Decorative Tree stamp set.
The Early Espresso layer is from the Country Woods 12″ x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Designer Series Paper embossed using the Timber 3D Embossing Folder.
The stars on the top of the tree and the tree bases have all been die cut from gold foil.
As there is a lot of gold on the front of the card I’ve kept the inside very neutral in Early Espresso and Very Vanilla.
Now it’s time to hop in over to our next participant, the lovely Kate Morgan – I can’t wait to see what Kate has made this week!

Love all that sparkly gold goodness, Cathy and the rustic background makes such a contrast. Beautiful card!
Love all the gold and you can never have too much of it, Cathy. Your vanilla and gold trees are beautiful and the added wood patterned paper, and dry embossed no less, is just the perfect background!
Gorgeous card Cathy. I really like the combination of gold and Very Vanilla with the the wood look background.
A gorgeous Decorative Tree card Cathy. I love your gold and vanilla trees including the heat embossed tree with the sentiment. I love the way the sentiment fits on the tree. The embossed wooden background is a wonderful touch. xxx
Stunning elegant, shabby chic card this week Cathy. Great colour combo of gold, vanilla and Early Espresso, amazing!
Oh-so-lovely, Cath. I adore the mix of elegant and rustic. This is a gorgeous card.
