2020 Christmas Cards

For my 2020 Christmas cards, I chose the gorgeous 

Maja Design collection "Holiday in the Alps"!

I created two styles....

First & favorite is the Old World Santa

 in beautiful cranberry, beige & brown.

He has the gentlest eyes!!!!

The inside sentiment is computer printed

in a coordinating cranberry-burgundy color,

using the stunning font called "Respective".

This card is made from the page named "Santa Claus".

It's absolutely amazing how perfectly it comes together 

when cut, scored and folded into 5" x 7" size. 

The front of the card is layered with a distressed 

Maja Design solid Cranberry paper;

followed by the page "Winter Ephemera"

card cut-out of Santa on adhesive foam sheet.

Then came the gesso splatter, 

to mimic falling snow.

Impression Obsession's Poinsettia dies are the absolute perfect size for cards!

Fully put together, they measure 1-1/2" in diameter.

As you can see, 

I used the same fabulous plaid paper as the main card

and also Maja Design solid cardstock "Pine Cone".

4mm Brown beads are hot glued in the center.

Here are the products used for the Santa card:

Now the other card I created really speaks 'magical' for sure!!!

I just LOVE these blues & browns together!

This page is Maja Design's "Winter Night". 

Following the same steps as the Santa card, 

I began by printing the inside sentiment in Navy Blue color.

This page folds perfectly for a 5 x 7 size.

Layering is with the Maja Design distressed card stock color "Frost";

Maja Design "Winter Ephemera" deer card cut-out on adhesive foam sheet;

 and lastly, gesso is splattered to mimic falling snow.

The last step is embellishing with a set of snowflake dies!!

Six are in the set and they are small enough for cards.

I used Recollections "Silver Shimmer" paper to cut them out.

Here are the products used for the deer card:

"Winter Night"

"Ephemera"

Shade of the Alps "Frost"

 with a renewed sense of love, fellowship & togetherness!
