We’ve made it to another bright and shiny new week, friends! I hope you all enjoyed a restful weekend. Although we had places to be all weekend, all in all I would call it a relatively low-key weekend. It’s nice to have the opportunity to rest and recharge.
Today we begin a brand new series of card designs. And this week, we’re still in the Christmas spirit as we take a closer look at all that the new holiday ephemera packs to have to offer, particularly when you’re looking for gorgeous cards on the go! Today we get started with a festive mantle.
Our card base is the Real Red Gold Dipped card base. We use a combination of the Joyful Images and Joyful Sayings ephemera packs to build our mantle scene. We use the red rectangle as our mantle and then decorate with stockings, of course, and then add some larger ornaments and a bell. Our elements are layered with dimensionals to give many different depths in our scene. The sentiment is hung above our hearth as the perfect focal point. A few drusy embellishments add a little sparkle.
Tomorrow’s clean and simple holiday card design features another look at the watercoloring technique I shared last week. I hope you’ll pop in and check it out.
