Good morning! Hope your weekend is going well. We’re having a nice visit with our friends – and I got a chance to fly his little drone around yesterday. Of course – now I want – no NEEEEEED! – a drone, too! 🤷♀️🤦♀️
Maybe!
My card today is the third in my Twelve Saturdays to Christmas video series for 2025 and it features the fun Party Alphabet and Branching Out die sets – and the pretty cards and envelopes from the Christmas Greetings Mix & Match Specialty Cards & Envelopes. Plus – a sentiment and pretty tree images from the Ornamental Christmas stamp set (on the inside!)! Take a look-see:
I started with a piece of Cherry Cobbler cardstock that I embossed in the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder. Then I used the largest Branching Out die to cut out a label.
Using three letters dies from the Party Alphabet die set, I cut “JOY” from the label. Then I popped it onto the front of a Garden Green Christmas Greetings Mix & Match Specialty Cards with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Using the dies in the Branching Out set, I cut out two Pecan Pie pine boughs, a Basic White berry sprig and five Gold Foil pine cones.
I adhered the die cuts to the card front – using Liquid Glue for the foliage – and a combination of Liquid Glue and Stampin’ Dimensionals for the pine cones.
Using two lengths of white twine from the Black & White & Gold Baker’s Twine Pack – I tied a simple bow and adhered it with a Glue Dot.
I added some Pecan Pie dots from the new Earthy Matte Dots (available on 4 Nov in the November Online Exclusives) and the card front was done!
On the inside, I stamped the gorgeous sentiment from the Ornamental Christmas set in Cherry Cobbler ink and the pine tree a few times in Garden Green ink – and the card was done!
The matching envelope from the Christmas Greetings Mix & Match Specialty Cards & Envelopes set got more of the Ornamental Christmas trees on the front…
…and I didn’t have to do a darned thing to the envelope flap – it comes already decorated with the Garden Green plaid!
Et Voila! I love the Christmas Greetings Mix & Match Specialty Cards & Envelopes – so much so that I just bought another pack! It’s such a pretty – and EASY! – start to your Christmas projects – like this one with the fun Party Alphabets die cut sentiment and pine decor from my fave Branching Out bundle! The Ornamental Christmas stamp set has the sentiments and images you’re going to want on hand!
I hope you like!

We sat in the kitchen last night chatting with our friends and the dogs were too tired – and a little bored with us! – to stay awake.
Addy decided to “let” Wayne host her royal self!
She’s pretty chillaxed, I’d say.
Unless a chipmunk were to make it’s way to the back door. THEN the velociraptor would come out! 😉
