Sweet and Simple Christmas Card

Posted on December 11, 2019 by Tracy McLennon

Welcome back, crafty friends! Tracy here, and today I have a Sweet and Simple Christmas Card to share. This fun little tutorial will show you how to Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside. Here are all of the details.

Let’s Get Started

To start, you will want to cut a piece of white cardstock and the patterned paper for the front of the Christmas Card to the same size, 4 x 5.25-inch. Using a 2.75-inch circle punch, I cut a hole out of the patterned card front. Next, I used Distress Oxide inks and a stencil brush to add subtle colour under where the hole was punched out of the patterned piece.

Create the Wreath

Adhere the 2 layers together using the E-Z Runner® Petite Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser and then grab some 3D Foam Circles White and began creating a pattern around the circular opening. This wreath of sorts will be the focal point of this Sweet and Simple Christmas Card.

I used a total of 12 large 3D Foam Circles White around the circle.

Then I added small 3D Foam Circles White in between the large ones. Remove the backing from the small circles only and then cover them with teal Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Variety Colors.

The next step is to take the liners off of the large 3D Foam Circles White and then cover them with fine glitter.

Adhere the patterned card front to the light blue cardstock base using Creative Photo Corners White. Add the super cute Doodlebug pieces to the Christmas Card in the middle of the 3D Foam Circle wreath.

Finally, add the Merry Christmas sentiment and gift box embellishment to the bottom of the Christmas Card.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
