Happy Saturday! It’s time for another Saturday Blog Hop!  This week we are showing off our “Favorite Holiday Catalog Designer Paper!  Of course…by far my favorite is the Let it Snow Specialty Designer Paper.  I love the vibrant colors and the snowflakes in some of the patterns!  PLUS it has a variety of stripes…my favorites, too!  I matched it up with #ELFIE this week!

Stampin’ Details:

• The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Real Red cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
• The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Whisper White is embossed with the Subtles Embossing Folder.
• A 1-1/4 x 5 strip of the stripe DSP in Let it Snow DSP package was added towards the bottom.
• A 1 x 4-1/4 strip of the snowflake pattern was added on top towards the left side.
• The next to largest Stitched Shapes Circle was cut from Coastal Cabana cardstock and stamped with the snowflake image from #Elfie stamp set with Coastal Cabana Ink.  It was added to the front wiht Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• A 1/2 x 2-1/2 piece of the red snowflake print was added towards the bottom of the circle.
• The elf was stamped with Memento Black Ink on Whisper White cardstock and colored with Light & Dark Real Red, Light and Dark Call Me Clover, Ivory, and Light Flirty Flamingo Stampin’ Blends.  It was hand cut and added to the circle with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Happy Saturday! It’s time for another Saturday Blog Hop! This week our Create with Connie and Mary theme is “National Coloring Day”.  Did you know there was such a day?  I sure didn’t!  I decided to use my Christmas #ELFIE stamp set for this blog hop!  SOOOO cute!

 

Stampin’ Details:

• The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Cherry Cobbler cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded to form base card.
• On top is a 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Wrapped in Plaid Designer Paper.
• A 1-1/2 x 5-1/4 stripe of the reverse side was added towards the left side.
• Some Gold Tinsel Thread from the Most Wonderful Time Product Medley was added around the DSP and secured in the back.
• The Stitched Shape Oval was cut from Whisper White cardstock and the elf in a stocking from #ELFIE was stamped with Memento Black Ink.  He was colored with Cherry Cobbler, Shaded Spruce, Ivory, Light Flirty Flamingo and Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends.  The oval was popped up on the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• The present from #ELFIE was stamped with Memento Black ink on scrap Whisper White cardstock and colored with Light Cherry Cobbler and Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends, then cut out and added to the oval.
• A trio of gold Holiday Rhinestones were added to the background of the oval for a little bling!
• A Holiday Hello was stamped with Memento Black Ink on scrap Whisper White and punched with the Classic Label Punch (shortened) and added with a Mini Stampin’ Dimensional!

I really love the gold metallic running thru one side of this designer paper!  Makes it SO elegant!  OK, next up on our blog hop is our Create with Connie and Mary website, then on to creative Mary Brown, or head backwards to see Melissa’s fabulous card!
