I used the Stampin’ Up! Window Wishes stamp set bundle to create a Christmas card to share with you today.  I borrowed a little inspiration for this card from a card that I saw in the Stampin’ Up! July-December 2022 Mini Catalog.

I started by adhering a panel of Boughs Of Holly DSP to the front of an Evening Evergreen card base with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  Then I cut a panel of Basic White card stock with the large window frame die from the Window Dies.  I adhered the die cut frame with Stampin’ Seal to the card front.

I cut panels of Evening Evergreen, Basic Black and White Vellum card stock with the frame dies from the Window Dies and I adhered the die cut pieces to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  Then I stamped the wreath image from the Window Wishes photopolymer stamp set in Cherry Cobbler ink and then I cut it out with the coordinating Window Die.  I adhered the die cut wreath with Mini Glue Dots and then cut a panel of gold Glimmer Specialty Paper with the bow die from the Window Dies.  I adhered the bow with a rolled up Mini Glue Dot to the wreath.

I stamped the candle image in Soft Succulent ink on a panel of Basic White card stock and then stamped the flames and sentiment images from the Window Wishes stamp set in VersaMark Ink, sprinkled it with gold embossing powder from the Metallics Embossing Powders and then heat embossed them.  I cut the candles out with the coordinating Window Dies and then cut the sentiment out with the small banner die from the Stylish Shapes Dies.  I slid the banner die over a bit and cut the end of the sentiment again with the die to make it a little smaller.  I adhered the die cut candles together and to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Glue and the sentiment with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals to finish the card front.

I stamped the sentiment from the Window Wishes stamp set in Evening Evergreen ink on a panel of Basic White card stock and then added a strip of Boughs Of Holly DSP to finish the inside of the card.

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