Here’s a card made I made with a few Scrapbook.com Exclusive products…
The card panel was blended with Cardinal Red and Midnight Blue. Then “stitching” was penned in around the edge with a white pen. The large and medium/small Nested Stars were die-cut from white cardstock, carefully positioning them on the cutting plates so they are centered. Then it was adhered to the card, slightly askew with the edges trimmed to align with the panel. Part of the “Joy to the World” sentiment from the Big Bold Christmas Stamp set was heat-embossed with white embossing powder on the corner of the panel. “JOY” was stamped in Midnight Blue, hand-cut into separate pieces, and then adhered with the Double-sided Adhesive Small Circles. And then the letters were dotted with Nuvo Crystal Drops. Ta-da!

Fun patriotic card perfect for a service member
Gorgeous card! I love your ink blended background and the Nuvo Crystal drops on the letters- so pretty!
Wonderful card..I like the big joy die and the fun stars.
Love putting up the tree with the kids.
What a great star in star look…would be fun for 4th of july cards too! We used to have a light up star on our tree, but it stopped working…so we’re topping the tree with a new angel this year…neither of my girls even noticed..ha ha ha
Great card. So patriotic.
I was born on the 4th of July so I love your colors.
Love your Handmade Papercraft Holiday Parade Card.
Really beautiful and patriotic! I am so impressed with the even white stitching, too. Fun hopping with you!
Pretty card! Love the stars and the sentiment!
Another tradition I have is making a garnet yam dish for Thanksgiving. I first made it many years ago when taking a microwave cooking class at my local junior college. It was such a hit, I have made it every year since then! Even people who say they don’t care for yams much, like this recipe!
Wow does this card pop! Love it!
And a favorite tradition is putting together a puzzle
Lovely card, Nanette! The red and blue make a bold statement, like my over the top, can’t stop xmas decorating, I’m afraid. Oh well.
Gorgeous patriotic Joyful card!! Memories: Candlelight Service every year with all of my adult kids singing carols and old hymns together!
Lovely. We enjoy playing games.
Pretty card!
Love the bright colors. Every year mom and I try to find new Christmas things to go to. This year I am going to see lights in Gulfport MS.
Love the red, white and blue…our country needs some joy.
I have been teaching a greeting card place at a senior center for several years. The people especially enjoy making Christmas cards, so it brings me joy, too.
Awesome card! I love non-traditional colors on holiday cards and your design so beautifully highlights a red, white and blue theme. I’m looking forward to remembering those that are no longer with us this holiday season.
Great card!
Such a pretty patriotic Christmas card. One of my favorite Christmas memories is visiting the National Christmas tree in Washington, DC.
Love the red, white, & blue patriotic feel of your card! Simply beautiful!
Love the patriotic Christmas card. One of my favorite Christmas memories is my family going to see the National Tree on the National Mall. We always liked to walk around and see the different state trees and see how many states we have lived or visited.
What a fun idea!! You could use the same color techniques and stars for the fourth with just a different sentiment!
Christmas for me is filled with so many memories. My favorite memory is being with my Grama and seeing what color her tree was each year … either traditional (multi color w/ silver icicles), or a Chrismon tree with white/gold ornaments (all of which were hand-made). This will be our 2nd Christmas without her. I would give anything to see her tree again (she was 102 the last time she put her tree up … She would have been 104 on Dec. 3rd.) I miss her and all her traditions! (a.k.a. Corrie Hanson @ cozycorner1902@gmail.com)
I love the awesome blending & the unexpected color choices!! Making handmade cards for my family & friends each Christmas is one of my favorite parts of the holidays!
Wow I love your card!! very nice. My favorite Christmas tradition is when the family gathers every year on Christmas Eve.
i love this card and could use the basic design year round
Such a pretty card! Love the colors and design.
Thanks for sharing…
Great card idea and colors. TFS
I love how you did the JOY! What cool colors and design!
Great for Christmas or any patriotic holiday,
Awesome card!
Very pretty card, and the color combination is a nice change from the traditional.
I love the red and blue background on the card. A favorite tradition is putting up our tree on Thanksgiving weekend. I love to add ornaments that we have picked up on trips.
Love that red ink! Looks fab here! We put up the tree while Charlie Brown is on the tv each year
Making this card with a different sentiment would be good for Veterans Day, July 4th and other patriotic occasions. Thanks!
This card absolutely made me think it could be made as a patriotic card too! Red, white, blue, and stars…can’t go wrong with that!
I love that you used non-traditional Christmas colors; it turned out beautifully. A favorite holiday tradition is decorating the tree with my family.
I like the non traditional colors
Lovely card, very patriotic looking.
Love the Patriotic Christmas card, especially because one of my trees is Patriotic all in red, white, and blue. My favorite holiday memories are Midnight Mass, husband playing Santa claus for 42 years, and the lights.
so pretty!
I love your nice christmas card
Every year I let my 3 kids pick a new ornament for the tree. Something that they think is neat.
Such a great card using patriotic colors. My tradition is making handmade cards. thank you
Oohhhhh! Patriotic Christmas. Love it
Oohhhhh! Patriotic Christmas
Beautiful card. Love the patriotic look.
The red in the middle of the sentiment,
against the blue that looks like jeans, is
a great idea. Kind of resembles a
neon sign. thanks for sharing.
I have a collection of Santa’s that
hide a year long – love to get them
out and put them throughout the
house. txmlhl(at)yahoo(dot)com
love your card, the love the dots on the Joy
I LOVE YOUR RED WHITE AND BLUE message of Joy. I am very patriotic, so this is perfect to me. I think that I will send a Christmas card to our president and his family. Thanks for causing me to start a new tradition 🙂
Your card is beautiful! Our tradition was to get together with family and friends and make Italian Christmas cookies. The dough is similar to noodle dough but sweet, then deep fried and dipped in warm honey. The dough is rolled out and cut into designs. My favorite is braiding strips. When fried the dough bubbles up and when dipped on honey those bubbles fill with honey. An all day project but so much fun!
Nanette, I never thought of that colour combination as Christmasy colours but seeing your card makes me rethink it. It is a bright youthful card and I love it. For Christmas this year our family is starting a new tradition of the adults only swapping handmade items to each other or time.
Love these colors! The stitching brings it all together…nice touch!
Oh this is so fabulous! Every year we go out in mid December to pick out the Christmas tree together as a family.
Thank you, Holly 🙂
Love the use of the non-traditional holiday colors!
Thank you, Amy 🙂
Such a pretty card! Love the non-traditional colors for the holidays! 🙂
Thank you, Amy 🙂
Such a pretty card! We have so many traditions from finding the perfect tree, to dated ornaments, to photos with Santa! Can’t wait to celebrate this year with the 2 1/2 year old and 7 month old!
