Hello friends! Today is day TWO of the Season of Wonder blog hop with Simon Says Stamp! In case you missed it, be sure to check out Day One HERE.
I have a very whimsical and kind of non-traditional Christmas card to share with you today.
VIDEO
You can watch the card tutorial down below or HERE on my Youtube channel.
I’m using the Lovely Leaves Wafer Die for my card today and created a window for them to be peeking through.
I started with the background by stamping Christmas Words in Flannel ink.
Then I die cut the Lovely Leaves multiple times from two different shades of green cardstock and layered together with liquid glue.
The window for my leaves is created using the Infinity Arches die. I turned it into a double frame for more interest.
I love the mix of the traditional green colors and soft pink.
For the sentiment, I’m using one of my favorites from a past release and that is Christmas Blessings and embellished with Gold Glitter Drops.

Hi, Mindy –
I like the colors and that background stamp is terrific – it’s sold out already. I could use this card for any number of occasions w/ a different background stamp. Thx for the ideas.

This is so simple, but so elegant. I love seeing non traditional colors on Christmas cards.
I didn’t really appreciate that arch cut-out until the third view that shows the dimension! This style would be perfect to send my Jewish friends who don’t celebrate Christmas per se, but love getting Christmas cards!
What a pretty card! Thank you so much.
Lovely card. I just bought some arches dies and I’m thrilled to get such a wonderful design idea!
I’m seeing a lot of these arched window cards and really liking them!
Unique & beautiful!
So very pretty Mindy! Love the background stamp. Glad I ordered that.
The double arch really showcases your focal image!
Mindy, love your card. That Christmas word background is awesome. I love how you used the arches as a focal point. Great card.
Love your card design
I didn’t feel it was very Christmasy but thought it would be great as another occasion card with a different background. I love how you did the window.
Lovely design with non-traditional color combo.
Stunning arch! I LOVE the elegance!

This card is Gorgeous!!!!!
Such a simple but sweet card! I love how it could be used for all kinds of occasions; plus it makes a good masculine card, as its not too “froofrooy” . (Did I just make that up?🤔)
The arch frame is very nice & layers create a shadow-like dimension.
So pretty! I love the arch. Nice card.
LOVE how you have used these new products on your card – so creative
Love the colors and design of your card.
This is amazing! Love the colors.
Lovely! I especially like the arch! So wonderful!
I love the subtle look of the word in the background.
The lovely leaves really are lovely.
So classy and elegant. I love the arch design
