Christmas Tags & More Mix & Match SDSP – Independent Stampin Up!® Demonstrator, Victoria, Australia

Welcome to the Colour Creations Instahop. You can follow us on Instagram starting @craftwithkate. Each week we will showcase the Stampin’ Up! colours in alphabetical order.

Week 23 – Garden Green

Today I have some Christmas inspiration with the Christmas Tags & More 6″ x 6″ Mix & Match Specialty Designer Series Paper (DSP). Now that is a mouthful, but rightly so, as there is so much included in this pack, from paper, printed die cuts & tags!

Here are my cards

A LITTLE ‘WHY’ ABOUT THESE CARDS
No inks, no stamps, just beautiful papers and embellishments. You can easily re-create these in no time with these papers and some cardstock and adhesives you already have at home.

How you can re-create these cards

1. Create the base – 21cm x 14.9cm, scored @ 10.5cm and the slimline card is 21cm x 21cm, scorede at 10.5cm

2. Layering – Card 1 – has some Designer paper with a Real Red matt, some Garden Green card with a long piece of Designer paper on top. Two thing Gold Foil strips added either side. Some Christmas Greenery die cuts in Soft Sea Foam and Garden Green with the printed die cut of the red cardinal.
Card 2 – I actually cut 1″ off the side of the card front to have the beautiful strip of DSP showing. The front has some designer paper, but before adhering it, I used a needle and threaded some Linen Thread through the paper and adhered it behind before gluing the paper to the card. This is tied through the top of one of the printed diecut ornaments, added on Dimensionals.

3. Add the sentiments – the Greetings for You Mix & Match Ephemera Pack with the gold foil sentiments on thick white card and adhesive on the back are the perfect sentiments for all your cards this Christmas.

4. Finishing touches – some Dear Dots, Linen Thread bow (card 2) and Gold Shaker Stars (card 3) have been added. Wink of Stella is added to the bird and all the berries on the designer paper.

Many of us also participate in the Heart of Christmas blog hop that goes live every Monday night, where we showcase Christmas inspiration in the lead up to Christmas. We would love you to follow us!
