This was a really quick card to make! I started with Real Red cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I added a piece of a Little Bit Festive Designer Series Paper to the Real Red cardstock (as I’m writing this on Thursday night, A Little Bit Festive is on the Low Inventory List).
Next, I used the Everyday Details Dies to cut a rectangle. I put it in the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder and ran it through my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.
There are three pages of cut outs that you can use on your cards and I used the festive truck with a Christmas Tree in the back. I adhered the truck to the embossed rectangle. Then, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card front.
I embossed my sentiment with our new Metallics embossing powder in gold onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Decorative Trees stamp set. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card. To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card. I love the simplicity of this card.

I started with a base of Real Red cardstock. Then, I added a layer of Basic White cardstock and Reindeer Days Designer Series Paper (DSP).
I cut a tag out of Real Red cardstock using the the Greeting of the Season Dies. Next, I cut a reindeer out of Reindeer Days DSP using the Reindeer Fun Dies. Then, I heat embossed the sentiment using our new Basics Wow Embossing Powder.
I added the deer to the tag and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the tag and adhered it to the front of the card. Then, I added three Drusy Adhesive-Backed Embellishments to the front of the card. To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card.

I recently purchased the Christmas Wishes Kit by Stampin’ Up! I wasn’t initially attracted to it because I like traditional Christmas colors but went ahead and got it anyway. There are gold envelopes and gold touches in the card bases and that sold me on it!
I made one of each card which I will show below..
This is everything that comes in the kit.
Here’s a look at the stamp set that is also included in the kit.
The kit comes with all the supplies to make 8 cards. There’s even a sentiment that you stamp inside the card. There’s also a sticker that you place on the gold envelopes.
Here’s the first card.
And here’s the second card!
Here’s a close up of the inside of the card.
Here’s a video put out by Stampin’ Up! that shows you how to make the two cards.

Designer Series Paper Sale
Here’s what on sale and you’ll find the sale prices below each paper. This promotion ends on August 31, 2024 however product is only available while supplies last.
Before sharing my card with you today, Stampin’ Up! has decided to extend FREE SHIPPING for one more day for orders $75 or more (before shipping/tax)! I’m sorry if you tried to place an order yesterday and had problems. Here’s what Stampin’ Up! had to say about the extension:
It’s Free Shipping—what a day to encounter worldwide internet issues! While the cause is beyond our control, we want to do what we can to make the overall shopping experience better. We’re extending our Free Shipping promotion through the end of day on 24 July. Unfortunately, the underlying cause remains, so the ordering process may remain slow.”
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List). I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I adhered the Iconic Celebrations DSP to the front of the embossed Basic White cardstock and then adhered it to a piece of Misty Moonlight cardstock and then that piece was adhered to the card front.
I stamped “Celebrate” onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Iconic Imagery stamp set in Misty Moonlight ink. Then, I stamped “the Season” below Celebrate, also in Misty Moonlight ink. I then cut it out using the Iconic Imagery Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete my card, I added three large rhinestones to the front of the card.

I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card. Then I added a layer of Night of Navy cardstock and Basic White cardstock that was embossed using the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder. I cut another piece of Night of Navy cardstock and layered it with a piece of Beary Christmas Designer Series Paper. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card front.
I stamped the sentiment in Night of Navy ink and then cut it out using the Labels Aglow Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the Designer Series Paper. I added a rhinestone to the sentiment and then added two more to the center of two snowflakes.

I started with a piece of Cherry Cobbler cardstock for the base of my card. I cut two pieces of Basic White cardstock and adhered one to the inside. I embossed the other piece using the Timber 3D Embossing Folder and then set it aside.
I cut a piece of A Walk in the Forest Designer Series Paper (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List) and adhered it to the front of the Basic White embossed piece and then adhered it to the front of the card. I stamped the sentiment in Pretty Peacock ink onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, Christmas Classics, and cut it out using one of the square dies in the Stylish Shapes Dies. I then cut a larger square out of Cherry Cobbler cardstock and adhered the sentiment to the front.
I used the Magical Meadow Dies to cut two sprigs out of Basic White cardstock and another out of Pretty Peacock cardstock. I used my Dark Real Red Stampin’ Blend to color the berries on the middle sprig (I colored them twice to make it even darker). I adhered the sprigs to the back of the Cherry Cobbler square using Stampin’ Dimensionals, added more to the rest of the square and adhered it to the front of the card.
