O’ Christmas Tree Card
A Joyful Days Card with a Touch of Heat Embossing ✨
Today, I’m excited to share a festive card I created using the Stampin’ Up! Joyful Days Memories & More Card Pack. These card packs are such a hidden gem—perfect for quick and beautiful creations without needing a ton of extra supplies. But of course, I couldn’t resist adding one of my favorite techniques: heat embossing.
Heat embossing always gives a project that magical “wow factor.” The raised, glossy look adds instant elegance, and it’s one of those techniques that never gets old. For this card, I embossed the sentiment so it really pops against the warm, rich background. It’s amazing how a simple touch of embossing powder and heat can transform a card into something truly special.
The Joyful Days Memories & More cards made the design process so easy—I layered a few of the pre-printed elements, added some shimmer with embossing, and finished it off with a couple of embellishments. Voilà! A handmade card that looks like it took hours (but it didn’t 😉).
