Concord &9th and Happy Little Stampers Christmas card

🎄 Addicted to Stamps and More – Christmas Challenge

Hello everyone, and welcome to the new challenge at Addicted to Stamps and More. We’re diving into our Christmas theme this time, and there’s nothing nicer than watching that festive card pile quietly grow while I'm sheltering in my craft room from the excessive heat outside.

✂️ My Card for the Challenge

For my card, I decided it was high time to show a little love to an old, neglected embossing folder that’s been sulking in a drawer for far too long. I think it was a Cuttlebug folder, but I can't be sure because it has no label. It has a pretty border of snowflakes framing a raised central panel, and although it is only a 2D folder, there is enough dimension for me.

In that central space, I stamped and embossed Merry and Bright from Happy Little Stampers in red ink with clear embossing powder on top

To finish things off, I added a cluster of die‑cut poinsettia and greenery from Concord & 9th. The pops of colour against the snowy white embossing give the whole card a fresh, crisp look — festive without being fussy, which is always my favourite balance. I added a scalloped die-cut panel from My Favorite Things.

🎁 Join the Fun

I hope you’ll play along with us this week. Whether you’re deep into Christmas crafting already or just dipping a toe into the festive season, we’d love to see what you create. Dust off something neglected, pull out a favourite, or try something new — it all counts, and it all inspires. Our design team members have lots of inspiration for you over on the ATSM blog.
