I know everyone is buzzing about the new Holiday Occasions Catalog! And so they should be. Demonstrators have had a sneak peek and it is worth talking about. You will love it! But my mind is on what I can do for holiday right now and not in December!
This card got its inspiration from the Twinkle, Twinkle DSP. Now, this is a paper set meant to make cards for babies. But the paper with the starry background was just what I needed for an idea I had had percolating in the back of my mind for a while. I wanted a “starry night” background for the Hometown Greetings. And I was going to do it using a resist and some whisper white ink. But using this paper makes this card so much easier and prettier!
The paper needed no embellishment, despite my use to use some of the star shaped Twinkle Adhesive Backed sequins! One another car, they would be perfect. On this one, they were just overkill. So, the card stayed simple with Shimmery White and Silver Foil paper die cuts. Then, a little silver edged ribbon, mini sequin trim and a silver brad to hold it all together! Doesn’t Stampin’ Up! have just the best ribbons and embellishments? They are so perfect for so many uses!
If you are a customer of mine or on my mailing list, you will get the new Holiday Catalog sometime at the end of August. And let me tell you it is a show stopper! When you see it in the mail, just relax, find a comfortable chair, get a nice cup of tea and enjoy!
But if you need to get some holiday done now, there are lots of goodies in the main catalog I am having the most fun with now! And I feel so great getting holiday started early!
