Aloha Stampers!
Welcome to Week 1 of my 12 Weeks of Christmas! Each week leading up to Christmas, I’ll be sharing a festive project, inspiration, and a little Christmas crafting fun.
We’re starting with a Z-fold Christmas card featuring the Welcome Noel Bundle. I love the layers and dimension on this card—and the little forest of trees across the front really makes the fold stand out.
Welcome Noel Z-Fold Card
This card creates a peaceful little Christmas scene with trees and deer tucked into the different layers. The Z-fold gives you lots of room to build the scene while still allowing the card to fold flat for mailing.
I added some soft color blending to the background for the sky, then used the Peaceful Pine Shimmer Brush on the darker trees for just a touch of Christmas sparkle.
And that row of die-cut trees from the Welcome Noel Bundle makes such a fun border across the front!
I especially like how this card looks from the side. You can really see the different layers of trees and deer and how the scene continues from one section to the next.
The greeting, Sending Warm Wishes This Christmas, is from the Stitched Stockings stamp set.

🌺 Crafty Tip: When making a scenic card like this, think in layers. Placing some trees and images in front and others farther back adds depth without requiring a lot of extra embellishments.
I hope you’ll come back next week for Week 2 of 12 Weeks of Christmas. I already have lots of Christmas ideas I’m looking forward to sharing with you!
What catches your eye first—the Z-fold, the little deer, or that row of trees across the front?
Aloha,
Cheryl
