Our Dear Savior’s Birth

12/21/24 Weekly Favorite at Splitcoast Stampers!

Hey everybody! I hope you’re having a fabulous weekend – only one more weekend before the big guy in the red suit gets here! I’m stoked to share an inspiration project for Keep It Simple with you today. I created this open box card with papers, stamps and dies in our new O Holy Night Collection and I love how it turned out. I have instructions for this fun fold (which folds flat for mailing) on the Freebies page on my blog HERE if you’re interested in learning how to make it. It’s an easy and super fun card to decorate.

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Basis Blue cardstock along with layering panels from several coordinating prints in the O Holy Night 12×12 Collection Pack. I stamped a sentiment and several images from the O Holy Night Collection Stamps on Basis White cardstock in Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I colored the images with alcohol markers, adding some details with a Sakura Clear Star Gelly Roll pen and a gold Pentel Slicci pen. I cut the images with the coordinating Outline Dies and trimmed the sentiment, and built the scene on the card layers, popping some of the elements up on adhesive foam squares and the star on an acetate strip.

I cut the back panel from Basis White cardstock and embellished it with a strip of patterned paper from the Collection Pack and a stamped and die cut sentiment.
