12 Days of Christmas--Day 9!

/

Hi friends! Its day 9 already! The months leading up to Christmas always seem to go so fast don’t you think? And its definitely time to start thinking about holiday baking!

For my project today I wanted to share a fun little card that is 99% created from the Homemade Treats bundle. This is a bundle that I will designate as a ‘keeper set’ because I like to hang onto any sets that have to do with baking, food, treat giving etc. Its a genre we don’t see quite as often.

I started with a base of Real Red card stock and then added a panel of the Silent Snowfall specialty 12x12 paper—it has a cute little snowflake pattern embossed on it. I love this paper! Its such a great alternative to a panel of white where you do not plan to do any stamping.

Next I added a panel of polka dots from the Traditions of Christmas DSP and to bridge the two panels I cut a 1/2 x 3 3/4 piece of Garden Green card stock and added two strips of the new Garden Green & White Chevron Ribbon. Because this ribbon is so thin it was fun to add to strips of it for a bit of a different design element.

 

I love how you can see the little snowflakes printed on the Silent Snowfall paper—they are in perfect proportion to the other elements on this card as well.

The best part of this card was adding all of the little elements from the Homemade Treats bundle—the only thing that is added from the Gingerbread Man bundle are the Garden Green gumdrops.

I modified the sentiment to just say ‘Tis the Season’ and stamped it in Coastal Cabana. If you have been following along you can probably notice a color theme to my projects!

The rolling pin, little gingerbread men and mini candy canes are just so fun! And the icing piping bag full of icing is a cute touch to this eclectic mix of images.

I punched a couple banners from the Garden Green plain pattern from the Christmas Tags & More DSP stack and added this between the layers on my sentiment. A few red sequins from the Traditional Sparkling Sequins completed this card project.

I really love this project and already can think of a few friends that will enjoy getting it from me this holiday season.
