Welcome N

I’m back with another Christmas card featuring the Welcome Noel Bundle from Stampin’ Up! And this time, we’re heading into the woods for a little Christmas village inspiration!

I love how this card came together with the pine trees in the background and that adorable little house right in the center. The Mossy Meadow and Crumb Cake color combination gives everything a cozy, outdoorsy feel, and the Early Espresso house adds just the right amount of contrast. It’s a fun way to create a Christmas scene without needing a whole bunch of different colors!

Handmade Christmas card with a Mossy Meadow striped background, layered pine trees, small Pecan Pie houses, a detailed Early Espresso house, and Iridescent Pearl embellishments.

I started with a Mossy Meadow card base and added a piece of the Texture + Tone Mix In Designer Series Paper. I love the subtle stripes on this pattern! They add a little something extra to the background without competing with the scene on the front.

For the main panel, I started with a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock and stamped pine trees in Crumb Cake ink to create a soft background. Then I stamped the row of little houses in Pecan Pie ink, die cut them out, and adhered them toward the bottom of the scene. I stamped the Merry Christmas sentiment in Early Espresso ink along the bottom and layered the whole piece onto a slightly larger Crumb Cake mat before adding it to the card front.

Next came those gorgeous pine trees! I stamped two trees in Mossy Meadow ink, die cut them out, and layered them over the background trees. I love how the different shades of green and brown make the scene look like it has some depth!

And of course, we need a little house! I used the Welcome Noel Dies to cut the house twice — once from Basic Beige cardstock for the solid backing and once from Early Espresso cardstock for all of that pretty detail. I layered the two pieces together and popped the house up with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

A few Iridescent Pearls were the finishing touch. They remind me of little snowflakes falling around the village!

One of my favorite ways to create depth on a card is to stamp some images directly onto the background and then add die cut versions of the same images on top. For this card, the Crumb Cake pine trees look like they’re farther away, while the Mossy Meadow trees stand out in front. It’s such an easy trick, and you can use it with flowers, leaves, trees, and so many other images!
