Typically, the beginning of a new month is hectic for me. Now that I’ve announced my new Customer Card Kit, I can sit back and create projects to share.
September was a busy month. We travelled to Vermont for a family wedding and spent some time there. I have a very special celebration coming up thiis month. My son is getting married. I am so happy and excited for him and my soon to be daughter-in-law. I know it will be an amazing, heartfelt experience for me to witness this very special occasion. And, I am designing a very special card for them!
Until then, I’m back in my craft room doing what I love to do – create card designs and cut paper!
I thought it would be fun to use the Reindeer Fun Bundle and the Reindeer Days 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper. Inspiration for this card came from the die cut gift boxes. I wanted to use them, but wasn’t sure how. After placing them up and down a card front, I came up with the idea of using the frame die in the Die Set.
The frame turned out to be a perfect “grounding layer” for the gifts. I decorated it with a little bit of die cut holly, added a few snowflakes, popped it on Dimensionals, and stamped a large sentiment. It came together quickly, once I die cut the frame.
So, do you want to make a card?
Pieces & Parts
- The patterned paper is my color palette inspiration: Crumb Cake, Poppy Parade, and Garden Green.
- I cut a Crumb Cake crdstock card base 4 1/4″ x 11″, and scored it at 5 1/2″.
- The Reindeer Days patterned paper layer is 4″ x 5 1/4″.
- I cut a Crumb Cake cardstock layer 3 1/4″ long by 3 1/2″ wide and die cut the center using the large “window” die from the Reindeer Fun Dies.
- I cut a piece of Vellum cardstock 3 1/8″ x 3 3/8″ and adhered it to the back of the die cut window frame.
- The Poppy Parade cardstock mat layer is 3 3/8″ x 3 5/8″.
- I attached the Crumb Cake frame to the Poppy Parade layer with Dimensionals.
- The gift boxes and holly are adhererd to the frame with glue.
- I stamped the sentiment with Poppy Parade ink and centered it under the frame.
- The Basic White sentiment layer is 1″ x 3 3/8″.
- The snowflake embellishments are from the Adhesive Backed Snowflake Assortment.
The inside of the card is stamped using a sentiment and an image from the Reindeer Fun Stamp Set.

This is a fun card to put together. Try the design with patterned paper you have on hand and match up the die cut elements. The Reindeer Fun Bundle gives you everything you need to create this card design. The Reindeer Days Designer Series Paper gives you that little extra bit of “happy”. The coordination is perfect!
So, create a frame, add fun elements, a sentiment and a few snowflakes, and create a cheerful Holiday wish.
