Ink & Inspiration Blog Hop - October 2019 - Happy Holidays

Welcome to the Ink & Inspiration Blog Hop. You are currently visiting Angie McKenzie from the USA. This AMAZING group of talented, international Stampin' Up!® Demonstrators has some incredible projects for those of you who are ready for the next several weeks as we approach the most wonderful time of year... I hope you enjoy my project today as we say Happy Holidays! 

I have always enjoyed the traditional programs that begin playing earlier and earlier each year it seems...  I actually have DVDs of them all, but there's nothing like the family tradition of watching Santa Claus is Coming to Town, Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, Frosty the Snowman, and many more!  

Christmas Crowd is such a fun stamp set to color!  Stampin' Blends were the medium choice to highlight the personality of this jolly bunch.  Shimmery Crystal Effects worked like magic to accentuate the white hair, the white fur, the snowballs and the bells around Rudolph's harness.  

The Coastal Cabana cardbase is 5-3/4" square.  The Let It Snow Specialty DSP is 5-1/2" square.  The Copper overlay is 7" x 4-3/4" and scored at 2-1/4".  The stamped Whisper White layer is  4-3/4" square.

The Copper Foil overlay was scored and tucked under the stamped layer to open to the right like flipping through a book backwards.  Whisper White Baker's Twine tied in a bow with an attached Copper Foil Stitched Star Tag and DSP die cut snowflake is moved to the right to open the card.

Flip the card over for an additional sentiment and plenty of room to correspond!  

A custom envelope made with the DSP would be a nice touch!

I hope this project has inspired you to get creative with your card layouts and brightened your day. You are currently visiting Angie McKenzie.  Please see the list below and continue to hop through all of the people on the list to be further inspired.  You sure don't want to miss any of the wonderful projects!
