Merry and Bright – Stampin' in the Meadows

Good Morning! Today’s card uses the awesome Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees bundle with a Christmas pattern from the Garden Walk 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to make a festive tag Christmas card. And the sentiment is from the cute Merry and Bright stamp set. You can find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I adhered a panel of Garden Walk 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to the front of a real Red card base with liquid glue. I cut a tag from Basic White using the die from the Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees dies. I embossed the tag with the Christmas Tidings embossing folder and cut a hole reinforcer from Pretty Peacock. I adhered the reinforcer to the tag and looped Real Red and white iridescent ribbon through it and tied it with a Gold Twine bow.

I cut the 4 smallest tree sections using the Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees dies from a Pretty Peacock panel of Hello, Irresistible 6″ x 6″ designer series paper. I used the detailed tree branch stamp from the Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees photopolymer stamp set and stamped each section in pretty peacock. I used my bone folder to curl the bottoms of each section up and adhered them together using liquid glue. I cut a tree trunk from Wild Wheat and embossed with with the Timber 3D embossing folder and adhered it to the back.

I cut the two stars from Gold Foil and adhered them together before attaching them to the tree top with a glue dot and decorated the tree with Festive Pearls. I stamped the sentiments from the Merry and Bright stamp set in Poppy Parade and fussy cut it with my paper snips. I adhered the tree and sentiments to the tag with glue dots and popped the tag onto the card front with dimensionals.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees stamp set in Pretty Peacock ink on a Basic White panel. I adhered a strip of Garden Walk 6″ x 6″ DSP to the bottom of the panel and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

I love tree Christmas cards and the Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees bundle is pretty versatile for making different styles of trees and cards. The rich colors and designs of the Garden Walk 6″ x 6″ DSP make nice rustic cards and the gold trim & foil star with the shiny pearls give it just the right touch of shine!
