I absolutely love the Wrapped in Plaid Designer Paper and the Perfectly Plaid Stamp Set and Punch. I had a blast designing these cards. My sister, Tina Rappe, used this layout recently and I love the look so I cased it for my class.
Don’t you love the designer paper trees — they give the card a fun whimsical look. The Winter Knit 3-D Embossing Folder adds some great texture to the card along with the Cherry Cobbler Diagonal Stripe Ribbon.
I know the calendar just turned to October but I’ve been busy designed Christmas cards for classes. I’ve been playing with the Wrapped in Plaid Suite — so much fun. The plaid designs remind me of Christmas dresses I had when I was young — I just love them.
Isn’t this card super simple but so adorable.
I did a little teasing on Facebook this past week about a project I was working on. The posts definitely peaked interest so I thought it was time to share the project with everyone.
I love making framed art projects. I saw a few pictures of framed art that others were making using the Come to Gather Bundle and I knew that was my next piece of art. The Come to Gather Designer Paper is gorgeous and the color combo is fabulous — Pretty Peacock and Cajun Craze. I added Gray Granite as my neutral color and it turned out wonderful, if I do say so myself!!
This was definitely the hit of the night at class. They were a little overwhelmed at first but quickly realized it wasn’t hard but there are lots and lots of layers. It was lots of fun to make and everyone was very proud when they finished. I’m sure I will see some pictures of the frames hanging on their walls.
How would you like to make this framed art picture for yourself. You must have the Come to Gather Bundle (stamp set and dies) plus the stamp pads and Stampin’ Blends shown below (no stamping will be done).
I will cut the pieces and die cut the pieces that are not in the Gathered Leaves Dies
(you have to cut those out yourself).
