Modern Christmas Dutch-Fold Card

The Modern Christmas Suite is absolutely stunning with its black, white, and gold theme — perfect for clean, contemporary Christmas cards.  Its neutral palette also gives you freedom to introduce your favourite colour.  For this card, I chose Fresh Freesia cardstock to add a soft pop of colour.

This project is a dutch-door card — a fun-fold where the card front is only half the height of the full card.  You can create this in two different ways:

  • Fold a standard card base, then trim away the top half of the card front, or
  • Start with a full-height card backing and adhere a small, half-height note card for the front (the method I used here).

My dutch-door Christmas card showcases one of the striking black-and-white patterned papers from the Modern Christmas Specialty Designer Series Paper.  Over the top, I layered Gold Foil and the lighter side of Fresh Freesia Two-Tone Cardstock.  I tore the top and bottom edges of each layer to add beautiful texture and soften the structured design.

The focal point is a showstopper!  It features one of the Large Gold Hoops, hanging just above the edge of the shorter card front.  Layered over the hoop is a stamped Christmas tree image on Fresh Freesia cardstock, finished with more golden goodness using the Gold Striped Mesh Ribbon — oh my!

Whether you prefer classic colours or contemporary palettes, the Modern Christmas Suite offers endless possibilities.  Its bold patterns, elegant dies, and specialty accents make creating polished Christmas cards effortless.  If you’d like to try this style for yourself, this suite is a wonderful place to start.
