Christmas Theme Week: Day 7

**All items in the Christmas section are 15% off during theme week**

Hi friends! Christina here to share with you the cutest little holiday cards. Pairing minty green and pink with the traditional red and green gives these 4 x 4 square cards a festive vintage vibe, and they are a breeze to put together. Let’s get started!

I started by die cutting the larger Scallop Squares from white cardstock that I had inked with a mint green color. You could also die cut them from colored cardstock. Then I stenciled the inside square pieces with just the lattice layer in the Layered Leaf Lattice Stencils with white glitter stencil paste. Once these were set, I attached them and the scallop frame pieces to card bases measuring 4 ¼ x 4 ½ .

Next, I die cut and inked the focal points of my card designs from white cardstock. I used the candy cane from the original Winter Mug Dies and the Christmas tree and decorations from the Big Christmas Cupcake Dies. The bows and the little tag are from the Holiday Mug Addition Dies and the greenery is from the Holiday Wreath Builder Dies

After inking the die cuts, I assembled them and attached them to my card fronts with foam squares. I stamped a small sentiment from the Sentiment Strips: Christmas Stamp Set on the tags and added some red and white twine before attaching them with foam squares too. The twine is just wrapped around to the back and secured with a little Christmas washi tape. Nothing fancy.

To finish up my cards, I stamped sentiments from the Winter Greetings and Holiday Scripts sets with red ink before die cutting and fussy cutting them and then attached them with foam squares. For the final detail, I added white clay snowflakes from the Winter Snowflakes Clay Confetti to the stenciled backgrounds. 

Thanks for following along with the steps to creating this festive pair of 4 x 4 holiday cards with a fun vintage vibe. See you again soon!
