The 12 Days of Christmas Cards Day 8

Hello and welcome to day eight of The 12 Days of Christmas Cards. Today’s card is a fun whimsical design. I’ve incorporated stamping, the Holly Jolly paper pack, and a few Cricut cuts from the Complete Creativity collection to create this joyful card. Just look at this cheerful little guy!

Below is a closer look at the Whimsical Holiday stamp set. This stamp is a part of the Holiday Cheer promotion and is only available through the month of November so be sure to check it out. The snowman is perfect for the cheerful holiday scene on today’s card. He is such a happy little guy! I gave him a bit of color using Spectrum Noir Tri-blend markers and the Clear Shimmer Brush.

The snowflake background paper, along with the pink trim, is from the Holly Jolly paper collection. I cut the trees from the Adventure layout in the Complete Creativity collection, altering the size a bit to fit my card front.

The snowflake embossing folder adds texture and interest while the sequins bring life and movement to the design. Everything works together to create a cheerful little card bound to bring joy to the recipient. You can watch this project come together in the Youtube tutorial below.

Thank you so much for stopping by. I hope you enjoyed today’s project and I will see you on Friday. Happy crafting!
