Day 2 - 12 Colour Combinations of Christmas 2025

Well I’m back for Day 2 of our 12 Colour Combinations of Christmas Series. If you missed the first combination, you can check it out here: https://thecreativeeclectic.com/2025/12/the-12-colours-combinations-of-christmas-2025

There’s something magical about a rich, vintage-inspired holiday palette. If you’re dreaming of creations that channel warm nostalgia and those cosy by-gone-era vibes, then Day 2’s colour combination is going to be right up your alley. We start with beautiful creamy Very Vanilla and team it with the deep tones of Cherry Cobbler and Mossy Meadow, then add in hints of luxurious gold. It’s a classic combination that instantly says “old-world Christmas charm.”

12 Colour Combinations of Christmas 2025

You’ll notice the inspo photo… that beautiful wreath pulls everything together perfectly. The soft gold-sepia tones add that touch of luxury and encourage you to step away from crisp bright whites and embrace those warm creamy hues instead. It definitely embodies Christmas, don’t you think?

So how did I use this combination?

Well, for me gold = fancy. So naturally it was the perfect excuse to grab my “good” Season of Elegance paper and let all those gorgeous gold foil accents do the hard work. And when you’re talking vintage Christmas, there simply must be stitched ornate labels, holly, and pine boughs. Of course it also had to be a fancy fold. A diamond easel card is the perfect way to show off the shimmering gold and the embossed background.

Diamond easel card created with 2025 12 Colour Combinations of Christmas by The Creative Eclecitc- open view. Features Mossy meadow, Cherry Cobbler and Very Vanilla Stampin' up! colours as well as Season of Elegance DSP.
