DOUBLE TAKE Holiday Edition!
I have double the inspiration to share today − both with a poinsettia holiday theme! I love making two cards at once when I already have my supplies gathered. Sometimes I’ll grab leftovers from one card or get inspired to use a different layout. It’s a great way to create more than one card while still keeping each design unique. There’s lots to share, so join me in the video to see how each card comes together!
Assemble This! Videos are more detailed as we create this card together step-by-step. You’ll get all my tips and tricks to inspire your next card. Watch on YouTube. I’d love it if you’d subscribe to my channel! You’ll be the first to know when a new tutorial goes up too.

Comforting Christmas Wishes
This first card is all about showcasing the pretty poinsettia patterned paper in a way that feels cozy yet elegant. The focal point is a die cut tag that holds the sentiment, surrounded by small die cut elements for added texture. A bit of metallic paste brings a soft, uplifting shine, making this card an especially thoughtful choice for anyone facing challenges this holiday season.
What Makes This Card Special
- Soft metallic accents bring a gentle sparkle without overpowering.
- Sentiment-focused design for a meaningful holiday message.
- The beautiful patterned paper creates an elegant background.
- Pinecone and foliage die cuts add dimension and style.
Classic Christmas Wishes
This first card uses a simple layered layout that highlights the soft torn edge of mulberry paper for a rustic, handmade touch. The simple stamping of poinsettias on the mulberry paper adds beautiful texture that coordinates perfectly with the patterned paper edge. I love how this layout uses up patterned paper scraps, creating an elegant look without fuss.
What Makes This Card Special
- Torn-edge mulberry paper adds a handmade, rustic feel.
- Simple stamping and layout make this easy to mass produce.
- Perfect for using up leftover patterned paper scraps.
- Classic Christmas message that suits any holiday greeting.
I hope these two different but coordinated card designs inspire you to make your own double take creations! Whether you’re crafting for holiday joy or to bring comfort, these designs offer thoughtful touches that will make your cards feel extra special.
