Christmas Wrapped In Plaid for #GDP221

December 25, 2019 Filed Under: Gallery, Project Gallery

Merry Christmas everyone! I hope you are enjoying your holiday just as you like. With both Christmas and Hanukkah celebrations this week, it certainly is a time for festivity and happiness! I wish everyone a happy day today!

Today’s card was inspired by the fabulous color challenge at Global Design Project #GDP221. This extended challenge runs 2 weeks, so there will be many wonderful projects coming before the challenge ends. The color combination can be as sophisticated or as rustic as you want for designs. It can also be modern or masculine. It is truly a versatile color story to design around. I wanted to do a Christmas card, so I chose a design I will call “traditional elegant”.  You can see more designs by clicking on the image below.

This card features the Wrapped In Plaid DSP. While the paper I chose doesn’t really have Early Espresso in it, it certainly works well with that color. There is a touch of gold in the ribbon and the paper for the elegant look. And the sentiment stamped on a piece of the retired Wood Texture DSP is a little bit of rustic. It’s my last Christmas card of the season. I am a little bit sad to start putting away all my holiday stamps and papers. But I really look forward to showing you all the new items for spring! I received some of those through the Demonstrator preview and can’t wait to share new ideas!
