I have a quick and easy Christmas card design today that makes good use of those snippets of dsp and ribbon you have lying around. I used a Stampin' Up! Petals a' Plenty ef for the red, and an embossing folder from a Sizzix Snow Globe/Powdered Sugar ef set for the white. I added some green ribbon from PTI that I've had for ages. The card bases are Wild Wasabi green and the side panels are Real Red. I added a Christmas sentiment from SU! and die cut it with a SB Nestabilities labels 25 die, drawing around the inside of the die with a red marker before cutting. The holly leaves and berries were done with a Poppystamps Holly Leaves and Berries die set and that's pretty much all there was to assembling these quick and easy cards.
Here are a few more I made using assorted embossing folders on the red and white panels for some variety.
I'm sharing with the Craftyhazelnut's CHNC #356 which is a/g as long as it's Christmas with the option of using traditional Christmas colors.
Thanks for stopping by and here's wishing you a great weekend!

Such pretty cards, Carol! Love the traditional Christmas colors and the different mix of embossing folders! Very eye catching! Love these as they are going into my fav's folder! TFS and hope you & hubby enjoy the nice weather today! Hugs~
Totally LOVE this card! Will be doing a CASE of it for sure. Love that holly embossing folder it goes so well with the SU one. Will have to see if I have something close in my folders. If we ever have our meet up at L&L you'll have to bring that folder along. Pretty sure she has a big shot in that back room for people to use when they come for the day. Have a great weekend the weather is going to be amazing!
Very elegant and classy bunch of Christmas cards, the traditional colors look great with that embossing and the ribbon! The holly is a perfect touch for adding interest!
Oh I love the embossed background! This is a great Christmas card!

Love the way you've combined these 2 EFs into the card front (and I have both of these! Yippee for the idea!) The stitched ribbon was a wonderful border to cover the join and I like the spray of bright holly attached to the sentiment too. TFS
Beautifully traditional!
I love this idea. CAS but so gorgeous in every way!
