There are so many cute designs within the Stampin’ Up! Be of Good Cheer DSP, and I’ve used four of the designs to create this Christmas card that I am sharing today.

(Can you see the sparkle of glitter at the bottom left of the scallop?  I love how that caught the light.)

Here are additional pictures of the card.  The following one is a side view that also shows the card’s inside.

This picture is a closeup of the center piece of the card.

This picture provides a better view of the DSP that is rolled up in the center of the card.

This card seems to me to not need a tutorial as it is obvious how to create it.  Do you disagree?  If so, let me know!

I cannot get enough of making cards with the Ornament Keepsakes Stamp Set (128051) from Stampin’ Up!

Be of Good Cheer DSP (126896).

The picture below provides a side view, including the inside, of the card.

As the calendar turns to October, I begin to think about holiday cards like this one that features the Stampin Up Watercolor Winter Stamp Set.  The card is actually a birthday card for a special person who has a birthday during December.    Stampin Up Watercolor Winter

This view of the card shows the dimensions of the key elements from the Stampin Up Watercolor Winter stamp set:

Stampin Up Watercolor Winter

I love the pine needles and cones from the Stamping Up Watercolor Winter set.  In the past I have resorted to making my own pine needles for cards.  So this set will go a long way in speeding up my stamping of pine-related elements on cards.
