Simple Greetings of the Season Christmas Card
Create this beautiful yet simple Greetings of the Season Christmas Card using the Greetings of the Season Bundle by Stampin’ Up! This versatile Bundle is a joyful way to spread holiday cheer and show your loved ones you care.
The Greetings of the Season Stamp Set features a variety of sentiments in both cursive and sans serif fonts, offering a timelessly modern look for your cards. These sentiments pair perfectly with the coordinating dies, allowing you to create beautiful tags, labels, and banners to embellish your projects
.When starting your Christmas greetings card, consider the design and color scheme. Traditional red and green always work well, but don’t be afraid to experiment with other festive colors like gold, silver, or even a touch of blue. For this card, I chose the beautiful Winter Meadow Designer Paper to inspire my color palette of Misty Moonlight, Moody Mauve, and Mossy Meadow. If you’d like a more traditional color palette, make sure you visit my Color Combination Library for inspiration.
Creating Christmas greeting cards is a wonderful way to show your loved ones you care. With the Greetings of the Season Bundle, you’ll have everything you need to make this holiday season special. Happy crafting!
