Stampin' Up! Whimsy and Wonder 2021 Christmas Cards
October 18, 2021
Today I have a Stampin' Up! Whimsy and Wonder suite Christmas card for you as part of the Stampin' Up! Australia Art with Heart Team Heart of Christmas blog hop Week 16. It was quick to whip up 3 of these cards on the weekend, using this beautiful suite of products.
I was really pleased how these turned out. I really love the Whimsy and Wonder Designer Series Paper, and the pop of Polished Pink is fresh and bright. I also like the contrast of the Shaded Spruce stamped tree with the die cut Mint Macaron trees, both in colour and form. I've used a sentiment from Peaceful Deer.
Measurements:
- Base DSP piece: 10.1cm x 14.5cm
- Pink DSP piece: 8.2cm x 5.0cm with the top left corner rounded.
- Patterned DSP piece: 12.5cm x 5cm with top left corner rounded.
- Diameter of stamped circle = 6.8cm (2 & 5/8")
- Silver metallic trim length = 35cm
Supply list at the end of the post.
Now let's see what the rest of the girls have posted for Heart of Christmas this week. Next up we have the lovely Rachel Woollard.

Gorgeous cards, Claire and wonderful layout. I too love this DSP and the pink tones for Christmas this year. I love how you rounded one corner of your DSP!

So pretty, Claire. The colours are gorgeous, and I love the little touches like the silver cord and the rounded corners.

The rounded edges of the background papers are a lovely complement to the focal circle, Claire. The stamped and die-cut trees look lovely together. This beautiful paper has been a popular pick this week!

Such a pretty card and layout Claire. I love the use of the silver chord behind the tree circle focal point too it really balances the card!

Love the layout you have used for your cards Claire and the use of stamped and die cut trees on the circle panel. The rounded edges are a nice touch.

Your design certainly showcases these gorgeous papers beautifully. I love that the one rounded corner ties back into the scalloped circle.

Ooh, I love the splash of non-traditional colours for Christmas Claire. Your cards are so bright and happy.
