Hello, crafty friends! Today, I’m joining the Simon Says Stamp Joy for You Release Blog Hop – Day 2! This gorgeous release is filled with beautiful Christmas and seasonal products for cardmaking and papercraft.
Today, I’m sharing an easy cardinal Christmas card-making idea featuring embossed textures, layered die-cut elements, and ink-blended, colourful toppers.
I combined a rich navy embossed background with a starry arch, a beautiful holly wreath, and a colourful cardinal to create a festive card full of texture, dimension, and little golden details.
