I love to pair a big greeting with a designer paper background. Throw in a few accents, and you really can’t do any more because, quite frankly, you are out of space! The big greeting and pretty background do all of the work for you.
I particularly like this big greeting from “Time of Year” because you can easily change the sentiment to suit different occasions. The Presents & Pinecones designer paper is perfect for a seasonal birthday card, but of course, it makes a lovely Christmas card too.
Are you noticing how sharp the black ink looks? I used Archival Black on this card – I think it really makes a difference when the stamped image has thick lines or solid areas.
The designer paper measures 4″ x 5 1/4″. The Whisper White panel measures 3 1/4″ x 4 1/2″ and the Cherry Cobbler mat is 3 7/16″ x 4 11/16″. I apologize for the sixteenths! Sometimes adding 1/4″ is too much and 1/8″ is too little…at least in my mind.
Here’s another great thing – the metallic thread in red and green! These two colors come together in a combo pack of two spools, and they are discounted now as part of our year-end closeout sale. Many of our current Holiday Catalog items are on sale now, but only while supplies last. Click here to check out all of the deals in the store.
“Time of Year” also includes some little accent stamps – I used one on the inside along with a coordinating strip of Presents & Pinecones paper. “Time of Year” is a Host set, available for purchase with Stampin’ Rewards on orders over $150.
Thanks for stopping! Have a great weekend!
