Sweetest Candy Canes Holiday Card

Now that I’m back in my craft room on a regular basis it is time to buckle down and get some Holiday cards made. Nothing says holiday like Candy Canes in red and green.

The Sweetest Candy Cane stamp/die bundle found on page 10 of the Mini catalog is what I reached for. Not only are there two candy canes, facing opposite direction, but some fabulous dies to go with them, specifically the striped die. I cut two pieces of white cardstock with this die and turned one upside down to get the plaid look.

The 4 x 5-1/4 pieces of white stripes were layered over a piece of Lights Aglow DSP cut to 4 x 5-1/4. It all sits on a Real Red card base 5-1/2 x 8-1/2.

Final details

Final details include the pine branches die cut from Christmas Banners Dies in Garden green. A fluffy bow from white bakers twine, and some Red Pearlized enamel accents dots and added stripes on the candy canes.

Don’t forget the inside

I will admit that I’m not always one to complete the inside of a card but I’m trying to do better in that area. I stamped the sentiment from the now available Framed and Festive stamp set (only available until Jan 4) and paired it with some holly leaves and berries. Still leaving plenty of room for a message.

    2 Total hip replacements! Take it slow, and don’t overdo it. Making holiday cards will give a boost, I’m sure.
