I don’t know about you, but I feel like the Holidays are zooming right up – front and center – and I’m totally unprepared! The leaves are still falling but the temperature is dropping as a reminder that Winter is right around the corner. Today’s Holiday Card uses SU!’s All Is Calm Specialty Designer Series Paper and TH’s Snowflake Framelits to create a 2-Minute Sparkler that is just blingy enough to make your friends smile. When I’m creating, I always try to keep in mind what the recipient will be feeling the moment they open the envelope and see the card for the first time. I still love to get mail and the instant I see the card is such a surprise. Then, I love pouring over the details to see exactly how it was created.
- Lost Lagoon Cardstock 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ – Scored and folded at 4-1/4″
- Whisper White Cardstock 5-3/8″ x 4-1/8″
