This Modern Christmas card is all decked out with black & gold ornaments—magnificent!

I started with three pieces of Modern Christmas Designer Series Paper: 2″ x 3-1/4″ and 1″ x 3-1/4″ in the gold pattern; 1-1/4″ x 3-1/4″ in the black pattern. I’ve adhered them to a 4-3/4″ x 3-1/2″ piece of Basic White cardstock, then mounted that onto a Basic Black card base.

I die-cut a Basic Black cardstock ornament, Gold Foil ornament topper and 3 Gold Foil diamonds using the Ornamental Christmas Dies.

I stamped the Ornamental Christmas sentiment in VersaMark ink onto the ornament, sprinkled on some gold embossing powder, tapped off the excess, then heat-set it with the Heat Tool until glossy & smooth. I popped up the ornament onto the card front with Dimensionals, then attached the golden elements with Glue Dots.

I tied a bow with the Black & Gold Baker’s Twine and attached it with a pinched Glue Dot. Then, I finished up with a few black Shimmer Star Foam Stickers for more sparkle. So fun & easy!

Stamping, layers and more stamped layers! This card spotlights just some of the creative possibilities with this fun & festive Delicate Pines Bundle.

That isn’t Designer Series Paper on the background. It’s a 4″ x 5-1/4″ Basic White stamped layer created to look like DSP! I stamped the Delicate Pines images from largest to smallest: medium snowflake in Shaded Spruce, pine bough in Old Olive, small snowflakes in Lost Lagoon and the blank spaces filled in with tiny sprigs in Pecan Pie.

I embossed a 1-3/4″ x 5-1/4″ piece of Lost Lagoon with one of the Glass & Garden Embossing Folders, then adhered it with SEAL onto the stamped layer. The layers are mounted to the front of a Pecan Pie card base.

Layers, layers and more layers! I started by die-cutting a Gold Foil leafy branch with Delicate Pines Dies and adhering it to the top of the Lost Lagoon panel with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Next, I stamped a Delicate Pines sentiment in Pecan Pie ink onto a Basic White Stylish Shapes circle die-cut.

I die-cut one large and one small pine bough snowflake arms, cut them all in half, then attached them to the back of the circle sentiment with SEAL Adhesive. I covered the back of the circle with SEAL, then folded on some Gold Striped Ribbon in a Z shape. I used Dimensionals to tack down the elements on the back and pop up the sentiment circle onto the card front.

I stamped the Delicate Pines two small snowflakes in Old Olive ink and three tiny snowflake in Lost Lagoon ink onto Basic White. I die-cut them all and adhered them around the circle sentiment with Liquid Glue. I finished by coloring three Basic Rhinestones with a Dark Pecan Pie Stampin’ Blends Marker and adding them to the tiny snowflake centers to pick up the golden tones on the card. Beautiful!

Less layers, but so wintery and stunning! This one is great for stamping a stack of holiday cards!

I embossed a 5-1/4″ x 4″ piece of Basic White cardstock with the So Swirly Embossing Folder. I added a 1-1/2″ x 4″ piece of Old Olive down the left-center of the layer, then adhered it onto a Basic White Thick card base.

I adhered a 4″ x 3″ piece of Elegant Pine Snowflakes DSP to a 4-1/8″ x 3-1/8″ piece of Shaded Spruce. The DSP is cut to the perfect measurement for maximizing DSP when stamping a stack! I tied some Red & White Baker’s Twine around the layers into a bow before mounting them onto the card front with SEAL Adhesive.

I stamped the Delicate Pines sentiment in Shaded Spruce (Cherry Cobbler looks great, too) onto a Basic White Stylish Shapes banner die-cut. It’s adhere to the card with SEAL. Then, I stamped the Delicate Pines medium snowflake in Shaded Spruce and small snowflake in Old Olive. They are die-cut with the coordinating dies and popped up with Dimensionals. I die-cut a Cherry Cobbler berries element and attached that to the center of the snowflake with Liquid Glue. I finished with three white Faceted Snowflakes gems. Delightful & delightfully easy!
