Day 8 of the 30 Day Christmas Card Making Challenge is all about the sweet holiday spirit with candy canes and peppermint-inspired touches!
My colour combination is Shaded Spruce, Pool Party, Real Red and Basic White. I love Shaded Spruce and Pool Party together!
The candy canes are from the Joyful Images Mix & Match Ephemera Pack and I’ve popped them in a mug made using the Latte Love dies to die cut Pool Party Card stock.
I’ve stamped snowflakes from the Snowy Wonder stamp set in Shaded Spruce onto Shaded Spruce cardstock and added white splatters too. The snowflake die on the mug was die cut using the Snowy Wonder dies.
The white heat embossed sentiment is from the Greetings of the Season Stamp Set.
The holly leaves and berries are from the Reindeer Fun bundle.
I’ll be back tomorrow with another “30 Days of Christmas” Christmas card.
Are you ready for some more Christmas card inspiration?
My Christmas card for week 3 of our Heart of Christmas blog hop uses products from a brand new suite in this year’s forthcoming September-December catalogue, the Reindeer Days Suite Collection.
I’m in love with this little die cut layered reindeer!
My classic Christmas colour combination includes Mossy Meadow, Old Olive, Real Red, Early Espresso, Pecan Pie and Basic White.
The Mossy Meadow layer had been embossed with one of the Basics Dies before being die cut out using the foliage frame from the Reindeer Fun dies.
The reindeer is made from three layers of dies.
I’ve stamped the sentiments on the front and the inside in Early Espresso ink.
Both sentiments and the little tree on the envelope are from the Reindeer Fun stamp set.
To make an envelope that fits a square card I simply trimmed 1.5 cm off each side of a C6 envelope and used tear-n-tape to reseal the sides.
Now it’s time to hop in over to our next participant, the lovely Rachel Woollard – I can’t wait to see what Rachel has made this week!

The AWH team will be back on Wednesday night, showcasing Cherry Cobbler, or you can enjoy some more Heart of Christmas inspiration next Monday night.
