Our family makes it a point to gather together often and especially for holidays. One of my favorite things about Christmas gatherings is dressing the table, and my favorite part of table dressing is a fresh holiday centerpiece.
I designed this card with a holiday centerpiece in mind. A piece of Cherry Cobbler cardstock serves as the card base. I chose a sheet of Joy of Christmas designer paper that resembled a bed of greenery, and I love the surprise of it being printed in shades of red rather than green. The sentiment panel is heat embossed on vellum to allow the lovely patterned paper to shine through. To provide a more realistic look of holiday evergreens, I pulled several different shades of green from which I diecut each branch. The evergreen branches are tied together with both sheer ribbon and twine. The gold sequins provide a touch of sparkle and allow the eye to pass easily from left to right.
I’m super pleased with this design because it reminds me of my grandmother’s Christmas dinner table! ❤️ Do you have any favorite parts about preparing for holiday dinners?
