💜Non-Traditional Christmas Card | DIY Pink & Purple Baubles | 12 Days of Christmas in July 2026

Happy Saturday!

I have you have a wonderful day!

Welcome to Day 11 of the 12 Days of Christmas in July 2026 collaboration hosted by Monika (PaperMona), with Katarina joining in this festive creative journey!

Today's theme is Non-Traditional Colours, and I created a 5x7 inch handmade Christmas card featuring elegant pink, light purple and dark purple Christmas baubles. Instead of the classic red and green colour palette, I wanted to show that Christmas cards can be just as festive using modern, non-traditional colours.

To create the baubles, I used small nesting cutting dies and added decorative patterns with acrylic markers, making each ornament unique. One of the things I love about this design is how easy it is to customise—you can adjust the card measurements and use any nesting dies you already have in your craft room to create your own version.

Whether you're looking for fresh Christmas card ideas, modern festive colour combinations, or an easy bauble card tutorial, I hope this project inspires you to try something different this holiday season.
