Today I’m sharing a fun and festive Twisted Easel Card design — a perfect way to add a little interactive flair to your Christmas crafting! This card features the beautiful Peaceful Garden paper and coordinating glimmer paper for those sparkling doves. I’ve also used the Traditional Labels stamp set from Stampin’ Up! for that elegant Merry Christmas sentiment, and the Peace on Earth dies to cut out the glimmering doves.

The twisted easel fold creates a stunning display piece that stands beautifully on its own, making it ideal for mantelpieces or gift displays. It’s one of those designs that looks impressive but is surprisingly simple to put together once you know the trick.

Measurements

  • Poppy Parade / Night of Navy Cardstock – A6 Card Base – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half + a quarter sheet of cardstock.
  • Basic White Cardstock – 14.35cm X 10cm
  • Peaceful Garden designer series paper (DSP) – 14.35 (13.85)cm X 10 (9.5)cm

I’ve made two versions of this design — one with a red base for a bold festive feel, and another with a navy base for a more serene winter look. Both highlight how versatile the Peaceful Garden paper can be. The addition of the sparkly blue doves adds a lovely pop of texture and shimmer, tying the whole design together.

Creating the Card

The focal image on this card was cut directly from the Traditions of Christmas paper using the matching dies. This is one of my favourite tricks for making multiple cards quickly — the paper does all the hard work for you!

I mounted the image on a deep Cherry Cobbler background, framed with a gold oval for a touch of elegance. The sentiment Season’s Greetings comes from the Traditional Labels stamp set, perfectly tying the design together.

This layout is ideal for batch-making cards — simply die-cut several images from the patterned paper, stamp your sentiments, and assemble. You’ll have a whole set of festive cards ready in no time!

A Touch of Classic Christmas Charm

What I love most about this project is its balance of simplicity and sophistication. The combination of bold red tones, gold detailing, and traditional Christmas florals captures the season beautifully.

Whether you’re new to cardmaking or just looking for a quick project, this design will help you create elegant cards with minimal effort — perfect for sending handmade joy this Christmas!

I used the Words of the Season and Traditional Labels stamp sets for the internal and external sentiments, respectively, giving it a crisp and festive feel. The focal point on the front features a beautifully fussy-cut bird from the Nests of Winter DSP. This has been layered over a rustic wood-look panel for extra warmth and texture.

Showcasing the Scenic Inside

The magic of this card really shines when it’s opened—the Tri Fold layout allows the full winter scene to be displayed, complete with delicate snowflakes and beautifully illustrated birds perched among frosted branches. It’s like stepping straight into a snowy woodland.

The card base is Real Red, which gives a rich festive frame to the design and makes the winter colours pop even more.

A Beautiful Keepsake Card

This Tri Fold Christmas card isn’t just a greeting—it’s a keepsake. The recipient can proudly display it as part of their seasonal décor. The combination of intricate fussy cutting, coordinated stamping, and thoughtfully chosen papers makes it both elegant and heartwarming.
