Graphic Merry Christmas Card

Hi everyone! Ilina here! Today I am sharing a card that uses a single Bold Prints stamp, the Merry Christmas Letter Bold Prints. The stamp is used in two ways – for the background as well as the focal point message. You could use this same card design and change up your ink, cardstock, and embossing powder colors to get endless looks with just ONE stamp!

To make the card start by stamping the background on Mist cardstock using Clear Embossing and Watermark Ink. Once stamped, use White Embossing Powder to emboss it. Cut the panel down to 4" x 5 1/4" and set aside (make sure the "Merry Christmas" is centered on the panel. I like to stamp on a 6" x 6" piece of cardstock, then trim it to the size I need/want.)

Next, stamp the same background on Smooth Deluxe White cardstock using Arctic Core ink. Using detail scissors, cut out the "Merry Christmas" sentiment and adhere it to the stamped and embossed panel using foam adhesive.

Add White Enamel Dots around it and adhere using foam adhesive to a Dove White Side Folded Card.

This finishes your card!

Thank you so much for stopping by. Hope you have an amazing day!!!
