Christmas Greenery Archives - HIPPOFROG Designs

This poinsettia card is the design for Week 10 of my Countdown to Christmas 2025 series. It was also one of the projects from the ‘Special Christmas Cards’ session at my Christmas Card Making Day.

These ‘special’ cards are those you would hand-deliver to the special people in your life. There are extra steps in the designs including additional layers. They are also handed over in an envelope handmade from DSP.

If you’ve been around for a while, you’ll know that my special Christmas cards projects always include a poinsettia. This year is no different!

For this project, stars from the Ornamental Stamp Set are stamped onto the background using Lemon Lolly.

Next, the poinsettia and flower image is stamped twice and cut out using the Christmas Greenery Stamp Set and Dies Bundle. A combination of Real Red, Shaded Spruce, Garden Green, Lemon Lolly are used to colour in the images. The outline is stamped in Basic Gray.

These two images are then stuck to the background using Dimensionals.

Using the Traditional Labels Stamp Set and Dies Bundle, a sentiment is stamped, cut out and layered together.

A length of the fabulous Black & White & Gold Baker’s Twine is looped before the sentiment is attached, again using Dimensionals.

Using Wink of Stella, a touch of sparkle is given to the centres of the flowers.

Some of the items used on this project are now Last Chance Products, and some are discounted too. Don’t miss out on getting your hands on these fabulous items.

At this month’s Card Making Class, there wasn’t a theme. Instead, I designed a variety of cards for the attendees to make.

This first project in shades of pink and green is a bit of a surprise.

Would you believe this image is from one of the new Christmas Stamp Sets in the Mini Catalogue? The set is called Christmas Greenery and when I saw this image, I wanted to use it for something other than Christmas.

In the colour combination of Bubble Bath, Petunia Pop, Old Olive, Garden Green and Basic Gray, this design makes a pretty celebration card.

To begin, the floral image is stamped onto a separate piece of cardstock and then using 2-step stampin’ and other stamps from the set, the flowers, bow and leaves are all coloured. A touch of Wink of Stella is added to the flowers.

The image is then cut out using the coordinating Christmas Greenery Dies.

A background is created using the So Swirly Embossing Folder.

Simply Said provides the sentiment and this is layered onto a Petunia Pop layer.

This is stuck directly onto the embossed background, while the flowers are raised up using Dimensionals.

Finally, some Iridescent Pearls are added the project for some extra bling.
