I used the Stampin’ Up! Gift Wrapped stamp set bundle and the Sprig Punch to create a quick Christmas card to share with you today.  I borrowed a little inspiration from the Mini Catalog for my card colors and design.

My card design was loosely inspired by My Favorite Things Wednesday Sketch Challenge 508.

I started by inking the small bow image from the Gift Wrapped photopolymer stamp set in Crumb Cake ink, stamping it on scrap paper and then stamping it across a panel of Crumb Cake card stock.  Then I wrapped a strand of Shaded Spruce ribbon from the Wonder Of The Season Ribbon Combo Pack around the panel and secured it with Stampin’ Seal.  I adhered the layered panel to the front of a Crumb Cake card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Then I punched a panel of Just Jade card stock four times with the Sprig Punch and I adhered the punches to the card front with Glue Dots.  I cut a panel of Brushed Metallic Card Stock two times with the branch die from the Poinsettia Dies and then adhered the die cut branches to the card front with Glue Dots.

I stamped the sentiment from the Gift Wrapped stamp set in Shaded Spruce ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock and then cut around it with one of the Stitched Rectangle Dies.  I snipped about 1/4″ off the right side of the die cut and then adhered it with Glue Dots to the card front.  I stamped the bow image from the Gift Wrapped stamp set in Real Red ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock and then punched it out with the coordinating Gift Bow Builder Punch.  I adhered the bow to the car front with Stampin Dimensionals to finish it.

I stamped the sentiment and bow from the Gift Wrapped stamp set in Crumb Cake and Just Jade inks on a panel of Whisper White card stock to finish the inside of the card.

You can see a list of supplies used to create this card, including the card stock cuts, at the very bottom of this blog post.

I’ve created a printable PDF with written instructions and a list of products used to create this card.  You can download, print and/or save it by clicking this image:
