Countdown to Christmas 2023 – Week 5

Today I’m sharing October’s Christmas Card Club project. This card is the project for Week 5 of my Countdown to Christmas 2023 series.

For October’s project, I made this card, inspired by Page 21 of the September-December Mini Catalogue.

With the colour combination of Crumb Cake, Mossy Meadow, Real Red and Very Vanilla, it has a rustic feel.

The background is made from shapes cut from the Modern Oval Punch from the Mini Catalogue. These are then given some texture by embossing with the Online Exclusives Basics 3D Embossing Folders.

Once these are stuck to the layer, any excess overhang is cut away.

A strip of Mossy Meadow cardstock is then attached, with a length of the Real Red & Garden Green Ribbon Combo Pack on top of that.

Using the Christmas Classics Stamp Set, a new favourite of mine from the Mini Catalogue, the sentiment is created. This is cut out using the Nested Essentials Dies.

Two sets of leaves cut using the Bough Punch are then stuck to the back of the sentiment.

This is then attached to the project using Dimensionals.

Finally, some Iridescent Pearls are added for a touch of bling.

If you want to join us and make a future Christmas Card Club project, make sure you have booked your place by the 9th of each month.

Happy crafting
