Merry Christmas | Waffle Flower Holly Jolly Background

Afternoon all!

I have one last card project to share here from my guest stint with Waffle Flower and their Christmas in July 2024 release!

It’s actually the first card I made in my big festive crafting session.

As soon as I saw the Holly Jolly Background die and coordinating stencil, I just knew that pale pink was the way to go!

I started out by running an A2 panel of pink cardstock through with the Holly Background die, then stuck it onto my grip mat so I could easily add the stencilling over the top.

I used my Waffle Flower shader brushes to add some colour variation and left the panel to dry properly before giving it a good splattering of pearlescent and matt white “snow”.

Once that was dry, I trimmed down the panel with a nested rectangle die and popped it on a white card base – I added glue around the leaves and berries so that I could tease the edges up so they pop off the card more.

Then I just added the simple Merry Christmas Print die cut from black glitter cardstock and card complete!

Until next time, happy crafting!
