FRESHLY BREWED PROJECTS BLOG HOP IS BACK

After a short break, the Latte Girls are back blog hopping.

This week’s theme is Christmas Designer Series Paper. This is a great way for us to share ways to use the stunning range of current Christmas Designer Series Paper.

I made a few cards before I chose the one that I liked the most.

The Peaceful Place 12″x 12″ Specialty DSP is a glorious combination of white, grays and silver foil. Although snowflakes are rarely seen in Australia, over the summer months, it is still lovely to use them for cards for Christmas.

For the card base I layered an angled piece of DSP onto a piece of Basic Gray card before adhering this panel on the Smoky Slate card base.

For the panel that is layered up, using Stampin’ Dimensionals, I stamped Noel from the Tidings & Trimmings Stamp Set, on the piece of buffalo checked DSP.

Then I attached this piece to the snowflake DSP and Basic Gray card. A length of Metallic Mesh Ribbon was wrapped and tied around the layered panel.

I added strips of DSP on the card insert and envelope. The final step was to add some silver Metallic Pearls to the front of the card.

I think I will make some more cards similar in style to this one to send to family and friends. What do you think?

Now make sure that you hop over and see what the rest of the Latte Girls have created:

These are the other two cards I made in preparation for this blog hop. I prefer the first card because is more elegant – less busy.

I do like the colours and designs in the Peaceful Prints 12″x 12″ DSP pack but I think that I needed to use them differently. Maybe I should have just left the trees off the card. What do you think?

If you live in Australia, you can order any of the products I used to make this card by going to my online store. Just click on any of the images below.
