Lighted Christmas Wreath Card

This lighted wreath card will brighten someone’s day. It was made with dies and stamps from Karen Burniston’s Fall releases and include the Pine Cones, Greeting Labels and Dog and Cat Playful Add-Ons die sets along with Christmas Wishes stamp set.

Watch the process video to see how I made this card.

Cardbase: Using a purchased A6 cardbase and envelope, adhere decorative paper to the card front. Save strips of decorative paper to decorate the card front and back.

Lighted Wreath: Use a battery powered circle light to build the wreath onto. Cut 12-13 small pine branches from the Pine Cones die set from green cardstock. (I found that adding shims and using a metal die-cutting plate worked the best with my die-cutting machine to get crisp cuts.) Cut from light brown thin cardstock three of the small pine cone backs and three small pine cone fronts. Follow the video above for assembly suggestions and how to make a large red bow to cover the battery and push button using the Dog and Cat Playful Add-Ons set.

Sentiments: All the sentiments of β€œMerry Christmas” and β€œWishing you twinkly lights and cozy nights” are part of the Christmas Wishes stamp set and cut out using the Greeting Labels set.

Envelope:  The card fits into an A6 (4.75x 6.5-inches) size envelope.

A Light-Up Christmas Card

This card was made for Craft Roulette #238 whose parameters included collage, Italian restaurant colors, short element and diagonal lines.

Watch the video to see how I made this card.

Cardbase: I used a 11 x 4 1/4-rectangle folded in half to form a top-fold A2 (4 1/4 x 5 1/2-inch) card. The top panel was folded in half to form the easel.

Lights: Use one Pear Blossom Press Halo Light attaching to the front of the easel cardbase with double-sided tape. Cut a piece of white cardstock to cover the battery and button. Stamp the “Press Here” over where button is and attach with double-sided tape to battery case.

Wreath: Cut at least 20 pine tree branches from different shades of green. Cut a circle frame using the fourth and fifth larges circle dies and glue the pine branches around the circle. Attach the wreath to halo light with foam squares. Decorate with red dots and robin cut from decorative papers.

Sentiments: β€œWishing you a season of cheer” is from a new Karen Burniston stamps set Season of Cheer. The “Press Here” stamp is from Pear Blossom Press.

Envelope: The card fits into an A2 (4 1/4 x 5 1/2-inch) size envelope.
