I used two of my favorite designer papers from the Traditions of Christmas Suite Collection for two of these cards. The third one uses one of the sheets that you can die cut the images straight from the paper. I love all the components of this suite: Traditional Labels Bundle, Christmas Greenery Bundle, Traditional Wreath 3D Embossing Folder, Traditional Sparkling Sequins, Traditions of Christmas Designer Series Paper, and Real Red Shiny Ribbon. Since I’m not a huge pink fan, I’ll probably use the other sides of the predominantly pink sheets of designer paper.

Here’s the first design. I also used clear embossing powder on the Secret Sea words while still wet immediately after stamping.

Here’s the second design with my other favorite sheet from the designer series paper. I toned the paper down a little with a layer of vellum so you can see the pine branches better.

The third design uses the image die cut straight from the designer paper with the Traditional Sparkling Sequins…I love that these sequins are flat.

I’ll probably use altered versions of these cards for my October Stamp-a-Stack…still deciding.
