Hi all
Its my turn today to show you a little inspiration over on the My Mums Craft Shop Blog, and our theme this week is to use None traditional Christmas Colours.
Now I have to admit I was a bit stumped on this as all my xmas papers were the usual reds, greens, blues etc. Then I had a brainwave and decided to use a none xmas pad and used a couple of sheets with a more generic pattern in them.
I used an adorable Tiddly Inks stamp - Winter Wishes and teamed it with some gorgeous Echo Park papers - Here & Now. I kept the card quite simple just adding a few snowflakes cut from a Marrianne Die and bit of white Satin Ribbon.
I am quite pleased with how my card has turned out and I hope it has showed you how you don't need to spend lots on new paper for Christmas cards but to be a bit wise with the papers you may already have.
Thank you for popping by my blog today.

I agree - many non-Christmas DPs work perfectly for Christmas cards. In fact, I have only bought one pad of Christmas paper this year and have used a lot of regular DP instead so it's a good tip!
ReplyDeleteI also like using non-traditional colours and this is gorgeous. My fave bit is the button centres for the snowflakes!
Hugs, Kat x
