Christmas

Season of Joy

This week we are focusing on the additional design offerings in A Walk in the Forest designer series paper pack offered by Stampin’ Up! in the next Holiday Mini catalog which goes live next week. All of the designs are festive, but I especially love the holiday greenery designs because they are so versatile. I saw this fun fold design using a different designer paper and was inspired to create this card.

After seeing this fun z-fold design, I felt like it lent itself well to making a card that felt like a beautiful double door with a holiday wreath hanging on the front. A sheet of Crumb Cake serves as the card base and helps the lighter elements of the paper, like the branches and music notes, really stand out. The gold glimmer vellum keeps things festive and draws out the gold embossing and foiling on the outer portion of the card. I kept the interior of the card light and bright with a sheet of the white foiled holly design from the Joyful specialty paper pack.

This z-fold design also works really with designer series paper sheets that I like to call story sheets. They’re the designs that really look best when you can use larger portions because they have a scene that encompasses a much larger footprint of the sheet of paper. I’ll be showcasing a story sheet design with this fun fold in a few days and that post will include a video tutorial.
