For this month’s In Color Club, I featured Peacefu For this month’s In Color Club, I featured Peaceful Pine paired with @stampinupofficial ‘s 2026–2028 In Color Gingham Gallery Designer Series Paper to create an elegant Christmas card! 🎄 This design comes together with just a few simple elements. I incorporated the Graceful Evergreen Deer Hot Foil Dies for an extra touch of detail and elegance, added a sentiment from the Season Of Celebration Mix & Match Ephemera pack, and finished it off with some festive greenery using the Festive Cheer Dies. The best part? This card layout is perfect if you need to create a stack of holiday cards without spending hours making them! Simple, beautiful and full of Christmas charm! Comment pine and I’ll send you my supply list. 🌲 #StampinUp #InColorClub #PeacefulPine #ChristmasCardMaking #HandmadeCards
