Splendid Autumn Just for You


Today I am sharing the ShoeBox Swap that I designed for my recent Craft Retreat for everyone to make. This is one of the versions (everyone got to choose any one of the patterns from the Splendid Autumn 6"x6" paper). 

This layout was borrowed from US Demo Karen Titus, but I adapted the measurements slightly to suit our cardstock size. The Main Image is 8.5cm x 9cm, and the background piece (use the reverse side) is the leftover part, trimmed down to 11cm. Then simply cut the main image into strips - at 1.5, 2, 2.5 and 3cm.

I popped my pieces on a Pumpkin Pie card base (embossed with the Birch Wood 3D embossing folder). The sentiment is from the Unbounded Love stamp set...so many great greetings in this set!

What is a Shoebox Swap, I hear you ask? All the ingredients for making a card are included in each box, including pre-cut cardstock. It's great to be able to sit down and make 10 cards without having to think/plan/design.

Season of Green & Gold Card Set


I enjoyed getting into the Christmas spirit with this set of Christmas Cards, all made using the Season of Green & Gold Designer Series Paper, along with the other supplies I've listed below. You can click on the pictures to get more information about each product. 

This is such beautiful paper, with many shades of green and touches of elegant gold foil. You really don't need to add much more to create gorgeous cards!

A Green & Gold Merry Christmas


Here is my third Season of Green & Gold card, to round off the set. I use this layout a lot - 2/3 piece of one design of patterned paper, and 1/3 in a contrasting pattern. I used a gold die-cut tree as my focal image, and layered it on a Painted Trees 3D embossed piece of cardstock.

I love the combination of all those greens in the patterned paper, along with Basic Beige and crisp Basic White.

The Most Wonderful Time of the Year


I love a simple Christmas card design, with lots of crisp white. Isn't the Painted Trees 3D embossing folder stunning? All I've added is some patterned green paper from the Season of Green & Gold Designer Series Paper, and a sentiment in a gorgeous script font, from the Greetings of the Season stamp set.

Season of Green & Gold


At our recent Craft Retreat, we made a few beautiful Christmas cards, which I'll be sharing with you. This lovely ShoeBox Swap was designed by Heather. I love the touches of gold, that make it so elegant. The Season of Green and Gold Designer Series Paper is just gorgeous! You can see everything else I used listed below.
