Countdown to Christmas 2022 – Week 5

Week 5 of this year’s Countdown to Christmas series is also October’s Christmas Card Club project.

For this project, I used the Leaves of Holly Bundle (Leaves of Holly Stamp Set & Holly Berry Dies), along with Textural Elements. All of these items are from the Boughs of Holly Suite Collection and can be found in the July-December Mini Catalogue.

Unsurprisingly, I chose a traditional Christmas colour combination of Garden Green, Old Olive, Real Red, Poppy Parade, Soft Suede and Basic White.

All of the items were cut out using the Holly Berry Dies and the sentiment stamped with the Leaves of Holly Stamp Set.

Wink of Stella was added to the berries on the Textural Element to add a touch of sparkle.

Each piece is arranged, layered and then stuck to the project. Ensuring the glue is strategically placed where it will be hidden by the sentiment.

To add some extra strength, I stuck the Textural Element down with Glue Dots. They fit nicely behind the berry sections.

The sentiment is then added using Dimesionals, before the die-cut berries are layered together and added to the corner.

Finally a few Festive Pearls are dotted across the project.

This project is a very traditional Christmas card, but you don’t have to use these colours. Why not mix things up a bit?

If you want to join me for my final Christmas Card Club project for 2022, then make sure you have booked your place by 9th November.
