Sweet & Simple Card Created with Stampin'Up! Mistletoe Magic Bundle
December 13, 2022
Today we're designing a Sweet & Simple Card Created with Stampin'Up! Mistletoe Magic Bundle. Thanksgiving is past and now the time crunch begins...the countdown to Christmas is getting shorter as we speak! So when I need to design cards now I'm looking for beautiful and simple because I know I have limited time. Today's card is just that--sweet, simple and beautiful....
& take a closer look at those berries...
We've layered the die cut mistletoe on the Seafoam holly design in the Painted Christmas designer series paper. The subtle design in the background adds a bit of interest while remaining in the background and not overpowering our focal point. If we used one of the busier beautiful designs in that series...although gorgeous...our mistletoe fades into the background.
Now check out those awesome berries..they are even cut embossed....the berry die in this set is a strip die containing 6 berries--so you do one trip through the die machine and have 6 berries...makes this card a breeze to do. The little curved cut embossing adds such charm to the berries that just adding round circle cuts would not achieve. The berries are from the Seafoam sheet of Glimmer paper (#159371) however, if you don't have that product you can also just use white cardstock or Soft Seafoam cardstock and add Wink of Stella.
We added some depth to the card by adhering the mistletoe die cut using mini dimensionals...this lifts the focal point from the card front and gives the image a more interesting appeal.
Stop by Thursday and see the cute gift tag we designed with this set.
