Colorwise, those three fabrics go together well.
Texturewise - not so much, IMO.
I could see them in three different items, used in the same room. I don't think I would put them all in the same item.
But these are your fabrics and your projects - soooooo - it is what appeals to you, that matters.

They are so beautiful and Christmassy. If you can't find a quilt pattern, I had a similar cardinal fabric and made lots of potholders for Christmas presents. They would also make beautiful reversible placemats with coordinating napkins.

I think all 3 fabrics are beautiful. I think the snowflake and ribbon fabrics both look great with the cardinal fabric, however, I do not think the greens between the snowflake and ribbon fabrics look good together. I would do a window quilt (black for window trim), cardinals outside, and either fabric for the wallpaper inside. Just my opinion. It'll be great whatever you use.

how about this pattern: and use the cardinal fabric on back and the ribbon fabric as a boarder:

or this pattern, again with the cardinal fabric on back and the ribbon fabric as a boarder:
