Holiday Sneak Peek Week - Day 2!

Good morning!

Day #2 of the Holiday Catalogue Sneak Peek week and I bring you a very simple Christmas card with a bit of bling.

I kept this card really simply. I really wanted to show off the sparkle and shine in the Winter Frost Specialty Designer Series Paper! This paper is so gorgeous, and takes advantage of all the amazing "blues" we have in the colour families. The two specialty papers have a bit of shine with nice silver accents.


To carry on with the silver theme, I framed the sentiment panel with Silver Glimmer paper and tied a very simple bow with the brand new Silver 1/8" Ribbon! I love the 1/8" ribbons - they are so easy to use and add a nice little touch to your projects. When it is silver, all the better! :)



One of my favourite embellishments from the new catalogue are the Frosted Finishes Embellishments. They lie nice and flat, so they are easy to attach to your project, and they are so elegant looking. With the lovely rhinestones in the centre, they add just the right amount of sparkle! I haven't tried to put one through the mail yet, but they are quite slim, so it may cause no issues.


And last but not least, the fabulously swirly and fun Best New Year stamp set! I can't wait to colour this, pop out certain words and play around with this stamp set to see all that can be done with it. It's small enough that it would make a fabulous gift tag, and large enough that it can be used at your main focal image for your cards.

Thanks for stopping by today!
