Joyful Days + Bauble Blooms: Easy Holiday Cards

Joyful Days + Bauble Blooms: Easy Holiday Cards

Create festive Christmas cards in minutes with the Joyful Days Memories & More Card Pack!

Its timeless watercolor artwork—featuring classic trees, wreaths, garlands, plaids, and coordinating sentiments—makes holiday crafting wonderfully simple.

With multiple sizes, orientations, and styles, you can mix and match the pieces to build quick cards or pocket scrapbook pages with no fuss at all.

 I stepped things up by pairing the card pack with the Bauble Blooms Bundle for added dimension and detail for these cards.

For this first pair of cards, I created two ornaments using the Bauble Blooms dies.

For the first card, I die-cut the ornament from a window sheet. To define the shape, I traced the edges with the fine tip of a Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blend.

The ornament is adhered to the Joyful Days card with adhesive placed only at the top and bottom. A coordinating topper and a glimmer brad finish the piece and conceal the adhesive.

For the second card, I stamped the ornament on Basic White card stock using the 3-step Bauble Blooms stamps.

Then I die-cut a second window-sheet ornament and repeated the same edge-highlighting and assembly steps used on the first card.

For this second pair of cards, I paired Bauble Blooms with the Paper Towel Background.

I love incorporating the paper towels I use for cleaning stamps or blotting watercolors into my projects.

Simply separate the plies, adhere one layer to a card stock backing, and trim it to the size you need.

Here, I die-cut the ornament directly from the prepared paper towel and added it to the Joyful Days card. A topper and a greeting finish the look—quick and done!

And finally, for these two cards, I paired Joyful Days and Bauble Blooms with the Floating Strip and Paper Towel Background.

The Floating Strip Technique is a perfect way to use up paper scraps.

I cut one of the designs from the card pack—and a piece of my leftover paper towel—into 1/2″ strips.

Then I adhered the strips to a window sheet, leaving small gaps between each one.

After that, I die-cut the panel using the Bauble Blooms Die to create the ornament.

For the second card, I repurposed the leftover stencil pieces from the paper-towel cards and added the 3-step Bauble Blooms images to complete the design.
