Saint Nicholas Quick & Simple Christmas Card 

With the Limited Release of The Traditions of St. Nick Designer Series Paper, this was the perfect time to share the Stampin’ Up! Saint Nicholas stamp bundle with you. The Traditions of St. Nick DSP coordinates with this stamp set and is available while supplies last. I love that there are 2 different Santas to die cut out along with a lamp post.

These Santa’s will also be fun to use with Stampin’ Blends of all different colors or even to water color. Maybe even heat emboss Santa with Gold Embossing Powder and put him on the Brushed Gold Cards. So many options.

I hope you enjoyed this quick & Simple card as much as I enjoyed making and sharing it with you. Happy Stamping!

Card Directions

1. Fold card base in half on the score line, burnish with Bone Folder.
2. Take one of the Brushed Gold Cards and cut in half then cut down to 4” x 5-1/4”. Die cut the bottom left hand corner with the decorative Saint Nicholas Die then adhere to card base with Dimensionals.
3. Die cut the green coat Santa with tree out of the Traditions of St. Nick Designer Series Paper. Add to card front with Dimensionals.
4. Stamp the greeting on White Cardstock with Mossy Meadow Ink. Using the 5th largest Countryside Corner Die, cut out the greeting. Adhere over the top half of the decorative cut using Dimensionals on the upper half of greeting that adheres to the sold part of card front (do not use dimensionals over the decorative cut out).
5. For the wreath, cut 2 with the wreath die out of Mossy Meadow Cardstock with Adhesive Sheet on back of cardstock. Remove the adhesive backing of one wreath and put it on top of the other offsetting the leafy areas. Remove the adhesive backing off of back wreath and adhere to card front. 
6. Add gold Festive Pearls to the wreath.
7. The inside was completed by stamping saying in Mossy Meadow Ink on White Cardstock. Add piece of Designer Series Paper to bottom of card.
8. Use one of the Brushed Gold Envelopes for your card.
