This week’s final card in my Branching Out Card Class To-Go is full of warmth and elegance—perfect for the holiday season. I CASEd this beautiful design from the talented Stesha Bloodhart of Stampin’ Hoot! Check out my Branching Out Thanks Card.

My card begins with a Basic Beige base layered with a cozy plaid pattern from the Timeless Plaid Designer Series Paper.

I used the Branching Out Dies to create a stunning trio of panels in Early Espresso, Basic Beige, and Basic White. To add texture, I embossed the beige layer with the Gathering Leaves Embossing Folder.

The sentiment, stamped in Early Espresso Ink, brings heartfelt charm to the center panel. I layered die-cut twigs and pinecones—crafted from Early Espresso, Basic Beige, and the Forever Plaid DSP. I finished the look with a double bow of Early Espresso Linen Thread and a few Neutral Matte Dots for that perfect polished touch.

For the inside I added a strip of the same Timeless Plaid DSP. I stamped the sentiment from the Thankful Garden Stamp Set in Early Espresso Ink.
