The 12 Projects of Christmas 2025: Project #12

Wow. This series of project tutorials took twice as long as intended, but with life a little (or a lot) different this Fall, I did what I could in the time I had. But you know what? I - as I always do - enjoyed the journey and every single project this year made me smile.

The 12th installment of The 12 Projects of Christmas 2025 leads us to the manger and the baby Jesus, with Designer Series Paper rings that telescope our view right to what's important. That's why I ended with the A Child is Born stamp set for my last project. My intention was to create a simple card with understated elegance, and I think the Designer Series Paper I used helped me accomplish my goal.

So where does that Designer Series Paper come from? It's actually a Fall paper called Gathering Together.

I love everything about this card...especially the piece of Designer Series Paper I chose and the way I decided to cut and re-mount the circle rings. Using the edge of regular Stampin' Dimensionals around one of the rings and one of our Foam Adhesive Strips along the other gives different heights to the rings, creating that telescoping effect.

The Basic Beige ribbon, sentiment from the A Child is Born stamp set, and Traditional Sparkling Sequins finished the card with that simple elegance I was going for.

You can watch me make this card here:

Thank you for following along on this lovely Projects of Christmas 2025 journey. Although it took us a bit, I love where it went and where it brought us. I hope you've enjoyed the ride and have a very merry Christmas!
