Coast to Coast Creators Hop - Happy Holidays

     Fourteen of the month so you know what that means! It's team blog and Insta hop day! This month we are showcasing anything meant for the holidays!


How do you feel about non-traditional colours for your holiday cards? This design started with some precut card bases and layers I had leftover from a card class and an idea spotted on Instagram featuring the Holly Jolly Branches Bundle.


I loved the simplicity of this design idea shared by Dani (@danisthoughtfulcorner). I grabbed my precut Barely Blush pieces and decided to pair them up with gold foil.  What better option than using the gold foil patterns from the Neutral Noel Specialty DSP?  

I then die cut the little star die from my leftover DSP and used these in place of embellishments.




I played with both portrait and landscape layouts and switched around which trees were die cut in which foil pattern.  I stuck with the gold pattern as the largest tree as I liked how it balanced the other two patterns.


I stamped tone on tone for both cards, using both the falling snow stamp and the cluster of stars.





Nothing like some gold embossing to really add some punch to the greeting. I love how it pops! 

The Gold Striped Mesh Ribbon was last chance when I designed these cards so if you're lucky you can still grab it at a discounted price.





I'm really pleased with these cards. If I'm being totally honest, I think I prefer the portrait version and I will no doubt make several more as they were so quick and easy to create.


I can't wait to see what everyone else created with these colours!  

Be sure to hop around and check them all out!
