I love the fall season and look forward every year to hosting my big family Thanksgiving celebration. It’s bigger every other year when all the married cousins and my married kids (Sean & Amy) can be here too. As I prepare for Thanksgiving, I start by figuring out what my Thanksgiving invitation will be. I do send invitations to everyone in the mail every year. I think they look forward to it, at least I hope so. Here’s one of my possibilities for this year. What do you think?

Here’s the side view. The card does stand up on a desk and folds flat to mail in a regular A2 invitation size envelope.

Boughs of Holly Card & Box

Welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop!

This month, the theme is Seasons’ Greetings. This month’s design team members showcase projects inspired by their favorite seasonal time of the year. We really hope that you will be inspired by all the amazing creations the Pals are sharing with you! As you hop from blog to blog, we would love for you to leave a comment. You will find the lineup at the end of my post to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.

Stampin Up Leaves of Holly Christmas card and box designed by demo Beth McCullough.  Shop 24/7 and see more fun fold and 3-D gift ideas at https://stampingmom.com/boughs-of-holly-card-box #stampingmom #cute&simple4u #stampinup #bright&happy

I chose to showcase Christmas for my favorite season of the year. This sweet project is a card and a box. It’s very easy to make. You can see the video with measurements and directions here. The box is 3/4″ x 1-1/2″ x 5″. It can fit lots of different candy including a full size Snickers bar. I tweaked the directions of a project made by DJ Ouellette.

I used the Leaves of Holly Stamp set and the Boughs of Holly Designer Series Paper from the Fall Mini Catalog and the Wintry 3D embossing folder from the Annual catalog. You can see all the products I used at the bottom of this blog post.

Here’s both sides of the template showing how to make the card. I keep these so I can make this card with different supplies over and over again. If you watch the video, I think you’ll understand the templates. Please email me with questions or comments at Beth@StampingMom.com

More inspiration awaits, so use the lineup below to visit the rest of the Design Team. The Pals are excited to show you what they’ve created! Then, please mark your calendars for our next blog hop on [second Wednesday]. Our theme will be Focus on the Sentiment, when the design team will showcase a sentiment as the focal point of their project.

Until then, have fun in your craft space.
