Hey Creative Scrapbooker Fans!
Today, I’m thrilled to share how I created this Merry Little Christmas Card. This project features a blend of products from Ranger Ink, Creative Scrapbooker Magazine’s Super Stock, Penny Black dies, and Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L. Follow along as I guide you through the steps to craft this festive card. Grab your favorite drink, and let’s dive in!

Step 1: Create the Card Base and Window

1. Cut a piece of Super Stock from Creative Scrapbooker Magazine to 4” x 5 ¼”.
2. Place the Woodgrain Circle Die by Penny Black 3/8” from the top and ½” from the right of the cardstock.
3. Run the piece through your die-cutting machine.

Step 2: Prepare the Background

1. Cut a se piece of Super Stock to 4 ¼” x 5 ½” for the card base.
2. Die-cut the Tree Trio from Penny Black out of Super Stock. Blend Vintage Photo Distress Oxide Ink over the trees using a blending tool for a warm tone.

Step 3: Add Evergreen and Deer Accents

1. Die-cut the Evergreen Tree from the Natures Beauty die set. Blend Rustic Wilderness Distress Oxide Ink for a vibrant green look.
2. Die-cut the left-facing deer from the same set. Lightly blend Gathered Twigs Distress Oxide Ink to give the deer a natural finish.

Step 4: Stamp the Sentiment

1. From the Cozy Christmas Stamp Set by Stampers Anonymous, use the “Have yourself a merry little Christmas” sentiment.
2. Stamp the sentiment using Lumberjack Plaid Distress Ink on Super Stock and trim to 5/8” x 2 ½”.

Step 5: Assemble the Card

1. Use E-Z Runner from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L to adhere the trees inside the circle cutout as desired.
2. Layer the deer over the trees for dimension.
3. Attach the sentiment ¾” from the bottom and aligned to the right using E-Z Runner.

Step 6: Add Final Touches

1. Use Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L 3D Foam Squares to attach the card front to the base for added depth.
2. Create the card base by cutting Super Stock to 4 ¼” x 11”, scoring at 5 ½”.
3. Secure the card front to the base with E-Z Runner.
