Welcome to day 3 of my 12 Days of Christmas Blog Share with my friend Brenda from over at Stamps and Stretchy Pants. Today I am featuring a beautiful card made with the Framed & Festive stamp set from the Fitting Florets collection.

12 Days of Christmas 2022 with Brenda Nelson of Stamps and Stretchy Pans and Melanie Hockin of Mel's Inky Fingers.

This card is my new favorite Christmas red and green color combo – Merry Merlot and Evening Evergreen. The colors are so rich, it’s just beautiful!

The Fitting Florets Designer Series Paper is a limited release collection, and coordinates with the Framed & Festive stamp set and Framed Florets Bundle. This particular pattern in the collection is really versatile. The berries are white, but can be colored any color you would like. It’s an easy way to create custom paper for your project! I used Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blends Markers.

Framed & Festive Details

I added a die cut frame for the focal point, cut from the Framed Florets Die set. This is a sneak peek from the upcoming January – April 2023 Mini Catalog! I also added some detailed foliage pieces. These were die cut from Brushstroke Specialty Paper using the same die set.

For the sentiment, I randomly stamped Noel all over the card base. It’s repeated on a Basic White banner piece for the front.

Inside your card is another place to be creative! I feature a different pattern from the designer series paper collection. I layered it inside instead of plain white cardstock.
