For this week’s Global Design Project, we get to CASE the talented, Stesha Bloodhart. We’d love to see what you create, so please tag it with #gdp512 when you share it on social media. 

I used Scenic Adventure Dies for a Christmas card, with Branching Out Dies, a favorite from the 2025 September-December Mini Catalog (p.50), available September 3.

All is calm

I began with a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″, layered with Floral Impressions Designer Paper, cut with the largest Branching Out Die. The same designer paper was used to cover the envelope flap (see first photo). The next layer is Pool Party Two-Tone Cardstock, cut with the second largest Branching Out Die.

Next, I used three, Scenic Mountain Dies to cut the mountains, trees, and moon. The trees were cut from Two-Tone Garden Green Cardstock, which had “snow” added by rubbing with an emery board. I also layered the trees for thickness, and gave them sparkle with Wink Of Stella. The mountains were cut from Basic White Cardstock, with a second cut using the second largest Branching Out Die. The moon was cut from Textured Metallic Specialty Paper. Prior to gluing the mountains, I stamped the sentiment in Garden Green Ink. “All is calm, all is bright” is from the Child Is Born Stamp Set, another favorite from the 2025 September-December Mini Catalog (p.16), available September 3.
