Holiday Botanicals - Partial Front Cards

Hello Makers! I'm sharing two partial front cards that I made for the release of the Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Christmas 2026 release. This set is called Holiday Botanicals. It has three images in two different sizes, as welll as three sentiments.  

I made a process video for these cards and I do hope you find something to inspire you or an idea that helps you in your creative process.

I decided to stamp the largest of two images with Distress Stains onto Distress Watercolor Cardstock. First I cut 1" off the right side of the front of two A2 Cards. Then I cut two 3x5.25 pieces of WC Cardstock with my Deckle Edge Trimmer, and two 1.25x5.25 pieces of WC Cardstock for the right side of the inside of the card. 

Stamp the image in Distress Stains - I used Peeled Paint and Rustic Wilderness. Then color the berries with Lumberjack Plaid. Stamp the splatter stamp around the edge in Walnut Stain Distress Ink and the sentiment below the image in Black Soot Archival. Add a bit of sparkle by painting some Distress Liquid Tinsel onto the holly leaves and berries. 

Put blend or brush some Peeled Paint and Rustic Wilderness Distress Ink onto the Retro Pinwheel Layering Stencil. Then spray with water and press onto the smaller piece of WC Cardstock. Dry and stamp with the splatter stamp. Thenn adhere to the right, inside of the card.

Do the same with the ponsettia stamp, but orient everything horizontally.

Stamp in Lumberjack Plaid and Crushed Olive Distress Stain. Add Liquid Tinsel and Stamp the sentiment in Black Soot Archival.

Stencil the Retro Pinwheel in Lumberjack Plaid and Crushed Olive Distress Ink on the small piece for the inside.

Sew around the stamped pieces and add a bit of 1/4 lace along the front edge for even more vintage flair.

That's it for today's cards. These would be very easy to make in multiples for a set of Christmas cards. 

Thanks so much for stopping by today!
