For something different, I used the Fitting Florets paper to make this Christmas card with its nontraditional colors! Some of us are still making Christmas cards and getting them ready to mail so here is another idea perhaps you can use!
This Fitting Florets Designer Series Paper is available through January 4, 2023, as part of the early release of the Framed Florets Bundle which will be in the upcoming Spring Mini Catalog in January. Some of the papers are florals and others have more generic patterns. Then some have patterns that you can use for Christmas cards without looking Christmasy!
One of the coordinating colors of this designer paper is Balmy Blue so I used that for the card base. That’s almost all you need for this card – just the card base, the designer paper layer, and the greeting! This pattern in the Fitting Florets Designer Paper looks particularly appropriate for Christmas with its foliage and pinkish berries. I chose another pattern and cut out some of the blue flowers and foliage to add to the greeting.
The greeting is stamped with the fun stamp set, also an extra product with the Framed Florets Suite, the Framed & Festive Stamp Set, available until Jan. 4th. This is a Christmas greeting set with a fun font and sayings. I stamped the greeting in Polished Pink ink on Basic White and die-cut it with one of the oval frames in the Framed Florets Dies. Next, I used the same die with Polished Pink cardstock to get the pink frame around the oval greeting.
For some embellishment, I used the Metallic Mesh Ribbon. I adhered that behind the designer paper and the greeting, then tied a separate bow with two pieces of ribbon and adhered it with Glue Dots. And of course, I had to add some Iridescent Rhinestones Basic Jewels to the greeting!
