Hi everyone! Welcome to Monday night and the AWHT Heart of Christmas blog hop. Every week the team will showcase Christmas card ideas to help get you started on your own set.
I am continuing to use the Whimsy & Wonder suite from the July to December mini catalogue and have created three cards this week.
The Mint Macaron card stock base of the first card is dry embossed using the Tasteful Textures EF on the front panel. A strip of DSP with the Holly print and foils has been adhered. The bauble image from the Whimsical Trees stamp set has been stamped with Memento Black ink onto Basic White card stock and then coloured with Stampin’ blends in Dark Petal Pink, Light Flirty Flamingo, Light and Dark Mint Macaron and Light Polished Pink. They were then die cut with matching dies.
The greeting is from the Peaceful Deer stamp set and stamped with VersaMark onto Blushing Bride card stock and heat embossed with white embossing powder.
For my second card I have punched the rectangular shapes with the Rectangular Postage Stamp Punch and adhered with dimensionals to a DSP mat and then the Mossy Meadow card stock base. The sentiment is stamped with VersaMark onto Basic Black card stock and heat embossed with White Embossing powder. To finish off I have added Brushed silver foil stars die cut using the Christmas Trees dies. This is a very quick and easy card to make.
My last card is another very easy one as I wanted to use up the stamped and embossed greetings die cut using the Encircled in Beauty dies mass produced a while ago. I added some of the gorgeous Blushing Bride Frayed Grosgrain and White Glittered Organdy ribbons and that’s it! Although I will probably add some sequins later on LOL!
Please head on to the next participant for more inspiration if you haven’t already done so, the very talented Caroline Manwaring.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your week xx
Your cards are all so wonderful! It really is a pretty suite, and you've showcased it so well. I think that the pink card is my favourite, though.
ReplyDeleteThree very different cards but all from the one pack of DSP is just amazing to showcase, Rosa. I love Mint Macaron with these papers, but I do really like the pink one too!
ReplyDeleteGreat ways to show off these beautiful papers, Rosa. The sweet little die-cut trees on your first card look great tucked behind the sentiment panel. I love all the stars on your third card. Beautiful cards, as always!
ReplyDeleteSnap on the suite choice this week Rosa! I really love the three different looks you have created. The simplicity of the postage stamp one is so effective! That sentiment from Peaceful Deer is a favourite for me too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great variety of gorgeous cards Rosa. They are all so different but all so lovely - I do have a soft spot for the second card with all those silver stars.

ReplyDeleteThat should say - very creative!
ReplyDeleteLoving your Whimsy and Wonder collection that you have been creating. They are great! All so different but just beautiful. I love the Peaceful Deer sentiment too!
ReplyDeleteThree great cards Rosa. I particularly like the way you have strategically punched out the pretty foiled trees for card number two.
ReplyDeleteThree lovely and totally different cards from the Whimsy & Wonder suite of products, Rosa. It’s so nice to see the patterns showcased in the different layouts.
