Check out the first blog post & project inspiration provided by Guest Blogger, Josee Smuck, Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator and Advisory Board Member.
Well the snow will be coming soon which means it’s time to start thinking about my Christmas cards. I just love Stampin’ Up!’s new Home for the Holidays Ensemble and knew it would work perfectly for my cards this year. The ensemble comes with a greeting card designer template and some fabulous stamp brushes and embellishments which I used to create my cards.
The template is easy to work with; you can simply click on each photo box to add a picture. I played around and was able to create a couple of fun cards starting with this template!
I kept the first card simple. I just added my photos and used a new background color (Real Red), changed the color of the “so much” and added an adorable snowman from the embellishments in this collection. Of course I’m biased, but my daughter’s cute photos were perfect for this card, don’t you think?
The second card I created was slightly more work than the first, but I love how it turned out. I decided to change the size of the photo boxes and added more embellishments and stamp brushes from the Home for the Holidays Ensemble.
Here’s what I did for the inside of the greeting card:
The best part of this ensemble is that it is FREE! I can’t wait to use the rest of the ensemble to make more Christmas projects!
