Have you started making your holiday cards? If not, you’ll want to consider the Arrange A Wreath Merry Christmas card I’m sharing. It’s one of the holiday card designs that I’ll be using as Christmas approaches. The design is an Arrange A Wreath Merry Christmas card and is from my Guest Stamper presentation for the Luv 2 Stamp team. In previous posts, I provided you with other ideas for using this versatile stamp set and die bundle. The Arrange A Wreath Merry Christmas card is one of my favorite projects using the bundle. The Merry Merlot and Brushed Metallic cardstocks along with the Gold Cards & Envelopes create an elegant card.
Card Details:
With Arrange A Wreath dies, cut 2 leaf dies from the gold Brushed Metallic cardstock and one twig die from the Merry Merlot cardstock.
Using the largest flower die (6 petal flower); cut 6 flowers from the Merry Merlot cardstock.
Spritz the Merry Merlot flowers and twig wreath with the Champagne Mist. (Does not show in photo but the spritzing adds a special glimmer touch!) After drying, layer two of the flowers together using a glue dot to hold the layers (creating 3 poinsettia flowers).
Next, stamp 5 leaves using Old Olive Classic Ink Pad onto Old Olive cardstock and cut with the coordinating die.
Create a 3 layer wreath:
Attach the Merry Merlot twig wreath atop one of the gold leaf wreaths taking note to offset the twigs with the leaves. TIP: use small dots of Multipurpose Liquid Glue along the circle line of the wreath to adhere the wreath.
Next, add the adhesive to the back of the remaining gold leaf wreath and layer it atop the Merry Merlot wreath. AGAIN – offset the placement so the leaves aren’t lined up with one another.
Add Mini Stampin’ Dimensions to the back of the wreath and add to the top portion of the card base.
Attach leaves to the poinsettia flowers using glue dots. Arrange flowers and add to the wreath with glue dots.
Finish the flowers by adding Gold Glimmer Enamel Dots to the center of each flower.
Use the Detailed Trio Punch to punch the design on each end of the Merry Merlot cardstock for the sentiment label.
Next, stamp “Merry Christmas” using Merry Merlot onto a strip of Very Vanilla. Then, attach to the Merry Merlot strip and add to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
If you want to create a special card, look at the Arrange A Wreath bundle for lots of possibilities. I’ve been cutting additional wreaths to use for creating more Merry Christmas cards. So when the time arrives to start mailing my holiday cards, I can quickly assemble. And best of all, using the beautiful Gold Cards and Envelopes saves lots of time!

Later this week, we celebrate the July 4th holiday in the U.S. So, the design challenge for the Playtime with Paper team celebrates the holiday. Team members are to create a patriotic project using the Red, White & Blue color scheme. Each week, it’s fun to see the cards and projects that team members create. It’s always inspiring to see the different interpretations of the challenges. For my project, I chose to create a card that I’ll be mailing to friends. Since we’ll not be together this year, it’s a reminder to still celebrate!
Here’s how to create the Red, White & Blue card:
For the card base, cut Night of Navy cardstock 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″, then score at 4-1/4″ & fold. On the top portion of the card, the Playing with Patterns Designer Series (4″ x 2-3/4″) provides perfect faux fireworks. On the bottom portion, add the red and white stripe from the Playful Pets Designer Series Paper (4″ x 2-1/2″). To cover the seam of the designer series papers, use a 1″ x 4″ piece of Night of Navy cardstock. With the Stitched Stars Dies, cut the chain of stars from a 1-3/4″ x 3-3/4″ strip of Real Red cardstock and add to the card using the Fine-Tip Glue Pen. Additionally, the five red stars from the center of the star chain can be attached using Mini Glue Dots. For the sentiment, use a scrap of Whisper White cardstock and Night of Navy Classic Ink Pad. You’ll find the sentiment in the Itty Bitty Birthdays stamp set. Cut using the Classic Label Punch and add to card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. For the final touch, embellish with Red Rhinestone Jewels. If desired, add additional stars to the card interior.
