Pretty Christmas Classics card; video & free project sheet

We made this pretty card at my November card clubs. I also featured it on last week's video too.

I feel the clean layout shows off the pretty die-cuts. A simple piece of designer paper and a textured background add all the details needed to make this stand out card.

I gave them a few choices on their cards – greetings and embossing folders.

I've found the Christmas Classics bundle to be my 'go to' for holiday cards this year.  Between the pretty dies and the wonderful greetings and botanical assortment it has it all! I love how the white greeting die-cut fits so perfectly on the detailed leaf die-cut. See this bundle here.

• More Specialty Paper Team swaps with measurements!

  March 5, 2026

  ---

  Here are a few more team swaps featuring Stampin’ Up!’s specialty papers:

  First up today is Tracey’s card who used the fractured technique.

  Save

  This technique starts with a large piece of designer paper. Then add the diagonal square layer. Next you simply start adding the thin strips of DSP around the edges of the square piece; trimming off the excess on the outer edges. So easy!

  She chose the Lovely & Beautiful DSP for the main piece and the strips are the Season of Elegance specialty DSP found in the Annual Catalog.
  The greeting is from Blessed Beginnings stamp set. I love the thin layer of gold on the outer edge!

  Measurements:

  • Olive card base 5 1/2″ X 8 1/2″ score at 4 1/4″
  • Gold layer 5 1/8″ X 3 7/8″
  • DSP is 3 3/4″ X 5″, inside DSP 5 1/4″ X 4″
  • thin DSP strips are 1/4″ thick.
  • White square is1 7/8″, inside is 5″ X 3 3/4″

  Save

  The inside greeting is from Prayers & Promises, the flower and leaves are from the Simply Beautiful stamp set.

  Next is a pretty card made by Marla who also used the Season of Elegance DSP.

  Save

  The main circle dies are from the brand new Springtime Scenes bundle which is currently out of stock. The greeting circle is from the Spotlight on Nature dies.
  Her colors are Blackberry Bliss, Crushed Curry & Basic Beige.

  Card base is 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″. DSP is 4″ X 5 1/4″

  More swaps are coming tomorrow!
