And the collection of choice today is Crate Paper’s Bundled Up collection.
I’m still experimenting with card/paper in my printer – and this time I’ve printed it out on some older Whisper White paper from Stampin’ Up that wasn’t getting used for much else.
It’s more of a natural white compared to the Koala double-sided matte paper I bought recently. And natural white does suit more vintage collections. But I need to try some different settings to get the right vibrancy on card vs photo paper. Or perhaps I am just obsessing too much about it all and need to leave off printing papers for a bit and simply use what I’ve printed out!
Anyway, for this card I thought I’d go full on retro with my supplies, I’ve even pulled out one of my favourite tree dies from Lil’ Inker Designs, and paired it with sentiments from Lawn Fawn.
I was happy to discover that the sentiments in the Deck the Halls mini stamp set fit nicely on the Shortbread Shapes Rectangle Labels from The Greetery.
To make the Christmas tree pop more, I cut it three times from Emerald Isle cardstock and scored down the middle of the trees with my dual-tip embellishment tool (a very handy additional function!) to fold the die cuts in half and create a dimensional tree nestled inside that arch aperture.
And there we go! Very simple and repeatable with other digital papers – dare I say…
Until next time, happy crafting!
