Today’s card features the wonderful, Joyful Days Memories & More Card Pack. Due to its popularity it’s out of stock now, but scheduled to return around November 24th. You should attempt to order it now, because a message will pop up asking if you would like to be given notice when it’s available. It’s perfect for “quick & easy” Christmas cards. I fussy cut the Christmas tree, placed it on Dimensionals, and cut the plaid 3″ X 4″.
Joyful Days Christmas Tree
Next, I cut Basic White Cardstock, 5 1/4″ X 4″, and embossed the left side with a Glass & Gardens Embossing Folder. After gluing the plaid to the white layer, I put Tear & Tape down the dividing line, and placed Mossy Meadow & Gold Trim on top, adhering it to the back. Then, I glued the layer to an Old Olive card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″, and attached the Christmas tree.
“Merry Christmas” is from the Jolly Holly Stamp Set, stamped in Real Red Ink. I used a retired, Happy Little Things Die for cutting, and attached the label with Dimensionals. After attaching Peppermint Embellishments, my Joyful Days Christmas Tree card was complete.
I was inspired by Freshly made Sketches.

I love this pretty tree and the watercolored look of the plaid. Thanks for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches this week!
Thank you, Amy! I appreciate your comment!
Love this card. I and doing a Christmas card making class at a nursing home. We don’t have a lot of time so I do a lot of the card making and they love to embelish them. I have one pack of the M&M cards so I can do as many as I can ahead of time and get another pack when they come back in stock. This is so bright and cheerful. Thank you for sharing this.
Thank you for telling me, Chris! I know the class at the nursing home appreciates you!
I love your festive Christmas card, Su! The tree on the embossed background is just perfect! Thanks for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches.
Thank you, Verena! I’m always inspired by Freshly Made Sketches!
