Here we are again! It's time to design our handmade Christmas card ideas. The Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog is out, and it's full of fun new toys to get those creative juices flowing.
This handmade card design features the lovely new set Ornamental Pine, a very cool nature-themed collection. I think it works well with the Hardwood background stamp. I just love the detail on this background stamp! I used Crumb Cake ink on Naturals Ivory card stock to give it a lighter appearance of pine wood, but depending on the color of card stock and ink you use you could make it look like any wood!
Isn't the Snowflake Embellishment adorable? I threaded some Early Espresso Baker's Twine through the top and then tied it around the greeting panel.
You can find everything used to create this homemade Christmas card below. I hope it inspires you to get started on your own handmade Christmas card ideas.
