I used the pretty Stampin’ Up! Embellished Ornaments stamp set and This Christmas Specialty DSP from the Annual Catalog to create a clean and simple Christmas card to share today.

My card design was inspired by CAS(E) this Sketch #200.

I started by coloring the holly image from the Embellished Ornaments stamp set with Garden Green and Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Write Markers.  I stamped the image several times across a panel of This Christmas Specialty DSP and then adhered the stamped panel to a panel of Basic Black card stock with SNAIL.

I punched the end of two strips of This Christmas DSP with the Banner Triple Punch and adhered them to the panel with SNAIL.  I wrapped a strand of gold twine from the Baker’s Twine Trio pack three times around the panel and tied a bow, then adhered the panel to a Cherry Cobbler card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I inked the holly image from the Embellished Ornaments stamp set again with Garden Green and Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Write Markers, stamped it on scrap paper twice and then stamped it across a panel of Very Vanilla card stock.  I stamped the sentiment over the holly image in Basic Black Archival ink and then cut the sentiment out with a Layering Ovals Framelits die.

I adhered the sentiment oval to a scalloped oval cut from Basic Black card stock with another Layering Ovals Framelits die with SNAIL and then to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.  I added three gold enamel dots from the Metallic Enamel Shapes pack to finish the card.

I stamped the sentiment from the Embellished Ornaments stamp set in Cherry Cobbler ink and the holly branch in Garden Green and Cherry Cobbler inks on a Very Vanilla panel inside the card.
