Daily Challenge
The Holiday Hustle prompt is your chance to embrace the buzz of the season — think lists being checked twice, ribbons flying, and projects coming together in joyful chaos.
A few ideas to get you started:
- Layer up your design like Santa’s workshop shelves — lots of texture, dimension, and movement.
- Add playful details like envelopes, letters, or tools to nod to the workshop theme.
- Mix patterns or plaids to mirror the cheerful bustle of Christmas preparations.
- Try combining bold reds and soft pinks for a modern festive feel.
Remember, the “hustle” doesn’t have to mean clutter — it’s about energy, joy, and a little bit of sparkle.
Today’s Project
For today’s card, I turned to the Full of Wonder Collection from Rosie Studio, which captures the cheerful, handmade spirit of the holidays perfectly. I built the design around a “Santa Mail” motif, layering die-cut elements and tags to create the look of a Christmas package ready to be posted to the North Pole.
The plaid background adds warmth and structure, while the pops of pink and red bring that signature festive charm. A soft ribbon die cut and floral accents keep things light and joyful, with sequins adding just the right amount of shimmer — because no Santa’s workshop creation is complete without a little sparkle.
It’s a card full of movement and merriment — exactly what Holiday Hustle is all about.
