We were focusing on Fancy Folds for the recent Christmas card class and I used the same Lovely Layout #2 ( see this post ) but switched to the Joy of Christmas paper and changed it to an easel card. I chose the Sweet Sorbet cardstock for a fresh take on the traditional Christmas red and green palette.
This great layout uses 2 pieces of DSP - one 3 x 3 inches and one 4 x 2 inches.
You can alternate which piece is forward and which is behind depending on the pattern on each piece and which one looks best as the feature.
Add a stamped sentiment and a feature element to finish off your layout.
I cut some gorgeous pine fronds and some holly leaves from some "painted" green paper in my stash. The holly leaves were cut from a sheet of watercolour paper which I coloured with both Shaded Spruce and Old Olive. I used the Magical Meadows dies. - it has quite a sharp holly leaf.
I also really love the stylised leaf and berry frond from the Sweet Sorbet ombre glimmer paper - so luscious. Christmas always need some sparkle. - perhaps it's mistletoe?
