Hi friends! Popping in with a super cute Christmas card today! Happy Sunday! I got some much needed relaxation time in the craft room last night and I made this card. And you know what? It made me happy the entire time!
I used awesome new supplies from Pixi Dust Designs! Sandra is the kindest and most talented designer behind the brand and she was nice enough to mail me Santa and Mrs. Claus to play with! When I tell you these dies are a dream to work with…. They come pre-separated, and they cut like butter! I always love working with their products. I had fun mixing and matching red and white with little accents. Like their glasses! Oh My! So adorable. I even gave Mrs. Claus some bling Christmas earrings, and she has a candy cane in her pocket.
The dies are available now – head over to their website to see all the fun things!! Let’s get started!
I made my card front into a custom size since I wanted the couple next to each other. So it ended up being about 5.5″ x 6.5″ in size and I made it from a sheet of Neenah cardstock. I layered vivid red cardstock and then some candy cane striped paper from my stash and then a white layer. The sentiment and the little snow at the top are from Concord & 9th. Everything else is from Pixi Dust!! I think they look like me and my husband!! Hee hee.

I love how she has a tiny bow in her hair! I used a Copic C1 marker to add a bit of grey to her hair. The way the dies are set up is that there are very shallow indents where the pieces go – like the brows and the eyes and the mouth. So you get it lined up just right!! Her apron has slits in the pockets to tuck in the candy cane or her whisk that comes with the set.


For Santa I made his hat and his fur trim out of sparkly glitter paper! I added some hearts to the sweet couple. I am loving the detail in their eyes. Looks so cartoony and sweet.

I put the couple onto the card front using foam tape so they are raised up a bit. They are READY for Christmas and cheer!


That’s it for today! Hope you had a great weekend! I will be back on Wednesday with Part Five of The Greetery Christmas release! It’s sooooo gooooood! Just you wait! Wishing you a fun week ahead. I am going to a fun event Tuesday night! Melissa King from Top Chef is having a book signing at our beautiful downtown Sacramento Library! You get to meet her and get a free signed book! That will be a cool event for sure. I have never missed an episode of Top Chef! Take care, happy crafting! XOXO
