Create a festive holiday wreath for a Christmas card using Stampin’ Up!’s Pretty Pines Thinlits Dies and Swirly Scribbles Thinlits Dies.
STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- The A2 (4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″) Very Vanilla card base is matted with Cherry Cobbler card stock and a Very Vanilla layer that was embossed with the Woodgrain embossing folder. This produces a rich and rustic background.
- Love this! The grapevine style wreath was cut twice in Soft Suede using the Swirly Scribbles Thinlits Dies.
- The Precision Base Plate improves crispness when cutting the pine branches with the Pretty Pines Thinlits Dies. To make removal of die-cut card stock from the dies easier, run detailed dies through the Big Shot (back and forth) several times.
- A banner cut from the Bunch of Banners Framelits Dies displays the sentiment perfectly.
- Bend it! The sentiment, from the Star of Light Photopolymer stamp set, is curved on the clear block to fit the banner. Photopolymer stamps allow for this kind of versatility.
- “Simple joys” (Christmas Pines Stamp Set) is the perfect sentiment to carry the “simplicity” of this card to the inside.
- A few pine branches stamped off the inside corner adds just the right customization.

Love the card, but have a question, for all these pieces, what do you use to glue them to the card?
I like to use Multi-Purpose Glue and a paper piercing tool (dedicated to just glue). Thanks for your comment, Mary
