Winter Greeting Cards

Snowflakes are a current focus in the news and our card designs. Cards from the Elegant Pines Collection are highlighted today. Here are examples of cards created in my recent class. The deep colors in the pattern paper perfectly offset the snowflakes.

Baby It’s Cold Outside

 The weather forecast suggests it is a good time to share a card utilizing the Stay Warm Bundle. I created this card using the Everyday Arches die and Cherry Cobbler Ink, with two rhinestones embellishing the mittens. The dimensions are as follows: Mossy Green Base 5&1/2”, white cardstock 5&3/8 by 4&1/8”, Old Olive 5&1/4 by 4”, and DSP 5&1/8 by 3&7/8”.

Spring/Easter Kit


 It appears that this year's winter is dragging on, and we're only at the middle of January. Let's shift our focus to Spring with the lovely Paper Pumpkin Kit, which is available for under $30 and includes everything needed to create beautiful cards. With the option to order one kit at a time, you can tailor your crafting investments. Choose from working on the kit independently, gifting it to others, or participating in an in-house kit class where you'll make at least 9 alternative cards with added embellishments. To get started, please contact me directly or visit Sandyengland.Stampinup.net.
