We've all heard of Christmas in July! I just had to show you two of my favorite new products from the new 2009-10 Idea Book & Catalog. The minute I saw Thoroughly Modern, the gorgeous new designer paper using Rose Red, Bermuda Bay, Soft Suede and Sahara Sand, I thought of what fun and unusual Christmas colors they would make. Then I ordered the new Level 1 hostess exclusive stamp set Holiday Best and knew the two would combine beautifully for just the right look for the holidays.
This card was made easy by the new In Color Markers. I was able to ink up three separate parts of the rubber stamp to create a multicolored main image. Then I stamped it again and cut out the "Merry Christmas" and yes, the cardinal, too! Aren't you terribly impressed with my paper snipping skills! But I can't take all the credit. My Stampin' Up! Paper Snips make it easy! Both those images are popped up with dimensionals to add some more interest. I used a Rose Red Button tied up with a bit of Linen Thread as an accent. And, of course, the new In Color Polka Dot Ribbon finishes the card.
The main card stock is Soft Suede, one of the new In Colors. And did you know the In Colors now come in 8-1/2" x 11" Textured Assorted Packets? For just $.08 more per sheet, you can be using these beautiful card stocks on your projects rather than the plain card stock. It doesn't show up that well in the photo, but believe me, it really puts a lot of pizzazz into your project.
