Welcome to another week of the Art With Heart, Heart of Christmas blog hop. Wow this is week 11. Where are all the weeks going? I hope that you have been enjoying all the inspiration from all of the other participants.
This week I decided to challenge myself and use one of the Designer Series Papers from the All Is Bright suite, but one that I have not seen used very much. I actually did find it quite a challenge as the paper itself is quite involved.
I decided to take my lead from the green and gold in the paper as well as a Real Red cardstock base. I'm not sure if you can see it from photo but the Shaded Spruce cardstock has been embossed with my favorite folder, the Subtle one. I've then added a border of Gold glimmer paper to tie in with the gold on some of the stockings. I have used the scallop edge from the Seasonal Layers thinlits in the Annual catalogue. Then added some mini gold ribbon (which has retired) and a couple of Metallic Pearls to the bottom corners and as some of the accents on a couple of the stockings on the DSP. The sentiment is from the Another Wonderful Year stamp set and has been mounted on a gold scallop.

Your card is truly merry and bright Theresa, and truly lovely.
ReplyDeleteDon't you just love this DSP and those stockings are so fun! Great Card Theresa.
ReplyDeleteYou've done a great job with that designer paper, Theresa. Your card is very sweet.
ReplyDeleteYay, what a great way to use this designer paper (I was struggling with it too) and I love that large scallop. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteTherese you've really done this paper justice and yes, it is a tricky design to work with. Your gold scallop really brings the wow factor and the bow finishes the whole card off beautifully.
ReplyDeleteLove your card. Like Catherine aid, this is a tricky paper to work with but you have done a fabulous job making a happy and bright card. Thanks for playing along with Heart of Christmas Week 11.
ReplyDeleteNice Card Theresa, Very Marry and Bright.
