Hello and Welcome to the monthly Stampin’ Dreams Blog Hop. This month’s theme is showcasing projects with our Favourite Designer Series Papers. You are currently visiting Sandra here in Norfolk, UK. I hope you enjoy the projects I am sharing with you today.
My regular Blog followers will probably already know which my favourite Designer Series Papers. When this announced as title of todays ‘hop’, you’ll have guessed what I might have chosen !
Yesterday’s ‘hop’ featured ribbons and embellishments which I had already created before realising these would be back to back ! The ‘remnants’ leftover from yesterdays hop projects were lying on my desk, were too good to waste.
Today I am sharing another Christmas card design using the Noble Peacock Designer Series Papers #149493 .
I created two base cards, one using Pretty Peacock cardstock #150886 and one with Blueberry Bushell cardstock #146991.
I’ve added a mat layer of Old Olive cardstock #106576 and the Whisper White cardstock #106549 layer, which has been embossed with the Woodland Embossing Folder #139673.
As I said above, my ‘trees’ were waste left over from the hop I prepared for yesterday’s Blog Hop. As they laid on my craft desk, because I couldn’t bring myself to throw them away, I went on to create two more Christmas cards.
I started by straightening the one sided triangles to ensure the sides are equal. These are then attached to the embossed layer, two flat and one raised in the centre.
Next, I stamped the sentiment from Dashing Deer #151362 in Old Olive ink #147090 on a scrap of Whisper White cardstock. I trimmed the edges quite close, snipped the ends into a banner shape and then sponged the edges with Old Olive ink.
Lastly, once card completed, I applied Tombow #110755 and sprinkled with Dazzling Diamonds Stampin’ Glitter #133751.
I hope you enjoyed these projects and have fun ‘hopping’ round my global colleagues and see the fabulous inspiration they have to share with you today.
