Year of Cheer

I just cracked open the Designer Series Paper, Year of Cheer.  Oh my, it is gorgeous!  
I made two Christmas Cards with it - essentially the same card, although I was keen to see how the paper looked on a colour as well as on white.























This was another really quick and easy card.  I love the snowflake patterns on this paper, and even though it doesn't show very well, some of the snowflakes are in silver, and some are in copper colours.  So trendy, so classy!

After cutting my cardstock, either Whisper White or Tranquil Tide, to 14.9cm x 21cm, and scoring along the 10.5cm line, I then adhered a piece of the Year of Cheer paper that measured 10cm x 10cm.  

Next it was time for the washi tape - Year of Cheer Washi.  This has 5 rolls, of 3 different widths. This is a very simple way to add a little more interest to your card.

On the Tranquil Tide card I used Tranquil Tide ink, and on the white card I used Basic Black ink.  The oval was cut out using the Stitched Shapes framelits - my 'Go To' framelits for adding that little extra 'something'.

This time I even managed to remember to add something on the inside of the card - I keep forgetting this and I feel my projects are never quite finished.  Again, I kept it simple.



A narrow piece of the Year of Cheer paper once more, then I stamped the sentiment in Tranquil Tide or Basic Black dependent on which card it was.  That just finishes it off I think.

I would love it if you leave me a comment - just click on the word Comment below.  Let me know if you prefer the Tranquil Tide card or the Whisper White card.
