Festive Flurry is a new Stamp Set from the Holiday Catalog. It has matching Framelits which makes creating your cards simple and easy. Of course, I don't do simple and easy very well so I thought I'd just layer and layer and layer! The matching Designer Series Paper is called Winter Frost. I know you're thinking: "WINTER! – That's so far away!" - Ah, yes…but, if you want to make your Holiday Cards, you should probably think about ordering and cutting your card stock sooner rather than later! SENDING cards is one of the reasons I love Paper Crafting! I imagine the person grabbing their mail with the pile of bills in it and smiling when they see that someone thought enough of them to send them a handmade card. Creating your holiday cards will be a much easier task if you do it in pieces and once everything is cut, you can assemble while watching your favorite television program – or watching your kids play at the park! So…here is the first of many Holiday Card ideas for you. I hope you like it!
The Snowflake was created by die cutting 3 Snowflakes – one in Bermuda Bay cardstock, one in Silver Shimmer cardstock, and one that was first stamped in Pool Party Ink and then die cut. They were all layered together and finished off with a Frosted Finishes Embellishments Snowflake. The photo doesn't do that embellishment any justice. It is gorgeous!
The Winter Frost Specialty Designer Series Paper uses Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana, Island Indigo, Pool Party, Smoky Slate, and Whisper White as its color palette so you can incorporate lots of layers and then finish off with a coordinating ribbon!
Don't forget to finish off the inside of your cards! I cut a half inch strip of Winter Frost DSP and decorated the Whisper White cardstock inside the card to tie it all together. What do you think?
