The Toile Tidings Designer Series Paper is perfect for traditional red and green Christmas cards.
The background of this beautiful DSP is Very Vanilla, so that’s what I chose for the card base. I topped it with the Garden Green print of leaves, berries and pinecones. Then, I added a 3/4″ strip of Garden Green, ticking DSP, also in the Toile Tidings pack. I trimmed this with a narrow band of Real Red Cardstock, cut with a Be Mine Stitched Die.
Christmas Wreath
Next, I needed a circle, because I was using Global Design Project’s sketch for inspiration.
A wreath would be perfect for my red and green Christmas card! Using a Beautiful Boughs Die, I cut five boughs from Garden Green Cardstock. Then, using two Layering Circles Dies, I cut a frame from Soft Suede Cardstock.
I used another Beautiful Boughs Die to cut a pinecone from Soft Suede Cardstock, and glued it to the frame, along with the five boughs.
I placed Mini Dimensionals on the back of the frame, but before attaching it to the card front, I needed to add the sentiment.
“Believe” is from the Itty Bitty Christmas stamp set, which I stamped in Real Red Ink, and cut with a Merry Christmas label die.
I took a picture of the back, thinking you might be confused by my explanation.
And, here’s a final close-up. Isn’t that pinecone cute!

Hi Staria, If I understand your question correctly, the “believe” label die cut-out is about 1 1/2″ X 3/8″. The larger die cut-out is about 2 1/2″ X 3/4″. They are from the Merry Christmas Die Set.
Su Mohr,
Thank you so much! I am looking for a die cut that is the size of the …. word punch. So many on eBay are used with no return or $35-$40+ dollars. Just don’t want to pay that much.
Thank you for the information.

How clever to make a base from soft suede circle for the wreath. The beautiful boughs look great and the touch to red with the stitched straight die adds a nice touch of color to this pretty card. Thanks for the inspiration. Enjoy your day!
