Merry Mischief Bundle Christmas Card with an Adorable Gnome House

Okay, I think this might be one of my favorite Merry Mischief cards so far! How adorable is this little gnome standing in front of his very own Christmas house?! And the tiny Christmas lights hanging from the roof? I can’t even handle the cuteness!

Today’s card features the Merry Mischief Bundle from Stampin’ Up!, along with the Winter Dreams Designer Series Paper. I love how the dark snowflake background makes this sweet little Christmas scene stand out!

I started with a Secret Sea card base and added a piece of the Winter Dreams Designer Series Paper to the top of a Basic White mat. The white snowflakes against the dark background are so pretty! To create a snowy landscape, I tore the top edge of another piece of Basic White cardstock and adhered it to the bottom of the mat. I love how that simple torn edge gives the card the look of a snowy winter day!

The sentiment, “Holly Jolly,” is stamped in Secret Sea ink in the lower right corner. It’s simple, cute, and perfect for this little Christmas scene!

Now let’s talk about that adorable gnome house! I used the dies from the Merry Mischief Bundle to create the house with several different cardstock colors. The base is Basic Beige, while the light side of Crumb Cake Two Tone cardstock was used for the window frame and roof details. The darker side was perfect for the spots on the roof and the door. I added a Basic White snowcap, a Secret Sea strand of Christmas lights, and Golden Glow lights and window details.

Seriously, those tiny Christmas lights might be my favorite part of the entire card!

The little gnome was stamped in black ink and colored with Stampin’ Blends in Golden Glow, Crumb Cake, Petal Pink, Cherry Cobbler, and Deep Combo (#200). After die cutting him out, I adhered him to the card with Dimensionals to give him a little extra dimension in front of his house.

I finished everything off with a few white Shimmering Dots, which fit right in with the snowy Christmas scene!

Want to create a snowy landscape without using any special dies? Just tear the edge of a piece of Basic White cardstock! The uneven edge creates a natural-looking snowbank, and it’s a super easy way to add texture and interest to your Christmas cards. Plus, no two snowbanks will ever look exactly alike!
