    Thanks for the delightful card inspiration. Haven’t touched Seasonal Borders: Spring since it’s release. It’s especially pretty with the Celtic style frame. Love your card and the other two as well!

    Ashley, were you able to keep the embossing powder of the colours after the yellow? Or did you have to discard the rest?

Nothing captures the meaning of the season quite like a handmade card centered on the true Christmas story. This nativity-inspired design features the powerful verse from Isaiah 9:6 as the focal point, framed by a rustic stable, shining star, and peaceful palms. ✨

We love how the snowy hills add a soft shimmer, guiding the eye straight to baby Jesus nestled in the manger, a gentle reminder of hope and joy. Whether you’re creating cards for church friends, loved ones, or holiday outreach, this design shares the heart of Christmas in the most beautiful way. 💗

Clean, classic, and full of festive charm — this design proves that simple can still be stunning. The bold ornament anchors the design, while the bright holiday greenery adds that pop of color and seasonal cheer. And here’s the part we love: the Merry Christmas sentiment is die cut directly from the stamped panel, then popped up to create dimension without losing the flow of the design. It’s subtle, clever, and gives the card a polished, professional touch. Add a few scattered sequins finish it off with just the right touch of sparkle.✨
