Hi friends and Merry Christmas Eve!
I’m continuing to share holiday cards that I made this year. In this post again you will see a portion of cards made using Ink To Paper / Papertrey Ink products.
WINTER WOODLAND SCENE
I used an awesome Winter Woodlands Stamp Set. I choose a gray, white and red color scheme for the card and this card features a lot of embossing.
First I cut a panel out of a gray cardstock, added white spray splatters onto it and foam mounted the panel onto a white card base.
Next I white embossed the trees onto a dark gray cardstock, die cut the musing the matching dies and adhered them onto the card using thin and regular black adhesive foam squares (I used the squares of different thickness to place the trees on different level and intensify the tree tunnel look).
All non white elements I first stamped onto a white cardstock in corresponding color and then clear embossed on top using an iridescent clear embossing powder. Namely the street lantern elements were stamped with black, red and yellow inks and clear embossed on top. The tree star was stamped with yellow and clear embossed on top. Each “ball” of the string decorations on top was stamped in red and clear embossed on top.
The only exception is the red lights on the tree, which I embossed using red embossing powder.
Lastly I stamped the sentiment in red onto a white cardstock, fussy cut it using my scissors and popped up onto the card.
VINTAGE LANTERN SHAKER CARD
For my next card I used an awesome Vintage Lantern Stamp Set which I used to create a shaker element. Using gold and clear seed beads as the shaker filler.
To create pine branches I used the Tree Essentials and Sweet Orange Holidays Stamp Sets. Corner It: Holly Stamp Set was used to create berries.
I also die cut a starflake out of a gold and silver glitter paper to embellish the composition.
The Border Bling: Twinkle Die Set was used for the background. I die cut it out of a navy cardstock, inked with dark blue ink and added white splatters onto it.
The sentiment stamped in red onto a white cardstock popped up onto the card finished it off.
ORANGE SLICE ORNAMENTS
This card is probably one of my favorites of this year. I like combination of green and orange, I love how realistically the orange slices look. This card inspired me to make such ornaments for my tree this year. Not the main one which my husband doesn’t allow me to decorate with all that “modern sh%t”. But in my craft room I have a small tree decorated in “modern” Victorian style haha.
The orange slices were made using the Sweet Orange Holidays Stamp Set. I made the background by ink blending green distress ink onto a white card base and then stamping several branches from the Tree Essentials Stamp Set
On The Border: Fir Branches Die Set die cut out of a dark green cardstock was used to create the
CHRISTMAS BOOKS DECOR
Storybook Christmas Stamp Set was so much time to play with. First of all the idea! I think I mentioned it several times before that I’m a bit obsessed with home decor. Among other things I like using books as a part of my seasonal decor. And the Christmas Tree of books is an awesome decor element.
Other than that – playing with this set was a lot of fun as well. Stamping each book, selecting inks for each elements.
I stamped the books using two shades of green, kraft, red and pink colors.
Background I decided to made bold, die cutting the Border Bling: Joy Frame out of a black carsdtock.
To balance out the black cardstock I foam mounted it onto a white card base.
COZY PLAID
It’s quite easy to make a cozy card by introducing Christmas classic – plaid pattern. I used the Brushed Plaid Stamp Set stamped on red in black to create it.
Torn edges added to the faux flannel look I was going for. And a natural twine wrapped around the panel also adds some coziness.
For the sentiment I went quite simple as I wanted to leave the plaid as the lead player of the card. I used the The Joy Of Noel Stamp Set for the sentiment that has quite large rustic images which worked perfectly for this card.
ORNAMENTS STRING
My next card features the Ornament Greetings Stamp Set which is about ornaments and fun sentiment labels.
I went with a simple kraft+white+holiday colors color combo for this card. I used a hemp twine to create a string to “hang” the sentiment onto.
To add interest to the background I die cut elements from the Corner It: Holly Die Set out of a white panel and inlaid them back into the panel. To keep them in place I taped the back of the panel and then foam mounted it onto a kraft card base.
All ornaments were stamped, die cut and popped up onto the card. Along with the sentiment label which I white embossed onto a kraft cardstock, die cut and also popped up onto the card.
FESTIVE MUGS
My last card for today features the Festive Mugs Stamp Set. This a great set that can be used to make holiday mugs of so many designs.
I made 4 different mugs and created a festive scene using them. For the pine branches I used the Tree Essentials Stamp Set. Corner It: Holly Stamp Set was used to create holly leaves to place into a mug as well I stamped leaves and berries onto one mug.
I used the Woodwork Die Set to create the background for the mugs. I was going for a look of a rustic shelving unit with lots of holiday mugs placed in it.
Phew! it was a lot of cards to share in one post. I hope it wasn’t to tiring to read. And I hope it bring you more holiday spirit if you needed some.
Merry Christmas!

Great cards! We probably all could use some extra holiday spirit this year. I made oven dried orange slices for tree decorations one year for a small kitchen tree and made ornaments out of cinnamon sticks as well. My husband would have drawn a line on using them on the main tree as well!
