Just 2 weeks left of the Heart of Christmas for 2019 and tonight so I hope you have been enjoying all the inspiration each week.
Tonight I needed to make a very quick card as I have been flat out at home. Do you have times when things are just so busy and you need to make something so quick? Well this might be the layout for you. Stampin' Up! products coordinate so well and the Designer series paper is just gorgeous that you don't have to make things complicated.
Now this is a simple layout where you cut a card base, a layer of silver foil in this case, a layer of designer series paper and cut it in half. Have one side flipped over so you can show both sides of the cute paper add some gorgeous ribbon. Stamp a sentiment cut it out with the stitched shaped framelits and the die cutting machine, cut a silver scalloped oval with your die cutting machine pop them up on some dimensionals and you are done. So quick I made 3. Now you may notice the one hiding in the back is not current designer series paper. I was so happy that they were such quick cards I just pulled out some DSP and went for it. So you can see this is such a quick card so if you are hording all that gorgeous DSP get to it and whip up some last minute Christmas card to send out.
I was actually going with cherry cobbler as my colour choice this week as I wanted to use the Diagonal Stripe ribbon. I hadn't used it yet and it is just gorgeous! You can see that it works even on a busy patterned paper. The other ribbon I have used is the Grey Granite textured weave ribbon.
For this card I have used the Night before Christmas DSP. As you can see I am using the host stamp set Greatest Part of Christmas and it is a really good sentiment stamp set.
This card I have use the Wrapped in Plaid DSP but although it has gold foil in the DSP Gold and Silver go together at Christmas time so well!
Now this card is my ooops! I picked up a piece of retired DSP that got mixed up with all my current DSP as I had it left over and I must have just put it together in my little stack of Christmas papers, but hey it looks good. So if you have some sitting there get to it and make some cards so you can buy more gorgeous DSP. I just love it all, the pretty papers that Stampin' Up! has.
