Hello friends,
Today I’m sharing a handmade snowman Christmas card created for the Splitcoaststampers Fan Club Christmas Challenge—and I’m still a little in disbelief that we’re already in May! It feels like April just slipped right past without warning.
For this project, I kept things clean and classic with plenty of white space to let the focal image shine. I started by die-cutting a square layer and stamping the Snowman with Fence image from SweetMissDaisy Designs. The sweet snowman came to life with a pop of Christmas red on his scarf and hat band—simple coloring that instantly gives a festive feel.
To add a touch of seasonal detail, I die-cut two holly branches from green patterned paper in the Fresh Worn Dots paper pack from SweetMissDaisy Designs and tucked them into the upper corner of the design. Three red sequins finish the look, acting as bright little berries where the branches meet.
I popped up the snowman panel with foam adhesive and placed it toward the top of the card base, keeping the layout airy and balanced. Below the image, I stamped the sentiment “Our friendship is the best thing in any season” directly onto the card base. The result is a wintery, heartfelt design with a clean and cozy feel.
This layout is easy to customize—simply swap in your favorite stamps, papers, or color palette to make it your own. Cardmaking is such a meaningful way to share creativity and connection, especially during the holiday season.
If you’d like to recreate this look, you can find the stamps and papers I used over at the SweetMissDaisy Designs shop.

I hope this inspires you to get a head start on your handmade Christmas cards!
