Blog Design Team: Have a Holly Jolly Cozy Christmas!
Today, Blog Team Designer Wanda Guess is sharing a super cozy card that has reaching for some hot cocoa!
Wanda’s Notes: Yes, Christmas crafting is now in full swing, and there are so many
wonderful products from Taylored Expressions perfect for fun and cheery
Christmas cards!
Wanda’s Notes: Today I’m featuring the awesome new Cutting Plate
called Sweater Weather. I love this one! It makes for a nice homespun
feeling and I thought it would go so nicely with some pretty red felt
mittens.
Wanda’s Notes: I made the Sweater Weather die cut out of cream cardstock and
layered it onto a kraft card base (red and kraft are one of my favorite
color combos for Winter). Then I had fun cutting out mittens and hearts
using the gorgeous felt from TE. It cuts like a dream with your dies! I
used the Chevron Border Die to give some trim on my little mittens too.
Wanda’s Notes: For my sentiment, I kept it simple with a pretty oval, and stamped my
words in rich brown ink.
Wanda’s Notes: A nice twine bow finished everything off. You
could really have some fun with different color combinations on this
one!
Thanks so much, Wanda, for cozying up our week! Join us tomorrow for our second day with Guest Blogger, Kim Sindahlsen.
