Patterned Paper Christmas Card 2

I'm back with more Christmas Cards that I made from my Carta Bella Snow Fun Paper Collection. I'm having so much fun creating cards with this fun collection. This time I used a general design kind of like a loose sketch. Most have a central focal point and the sentiment on the bottom. One has a "winter" sticker on the top. I can't believe I made seven more cards so quickly once I decided on a format to loosely follow.

I made another video showing how I made one of these cards. I can't believe it, two videos in a week!! Here is a link to the video https://youtu.be/JBf8CkFusrA  I'm hoping to get at least one more video with ideas for making cards from this collection as soon as I decide what do to next. I hope you enjoy these cards. Thanks for  stopping by!

Patterned Paper Christmas Cards

Every year I buy a new Paper Collection to make Christmas Cards with and this year I chose the Snow Fun Collection by Carta Bella. I decided to make a video showing how I decide which collection to buy and what I look for in a collection that I will be using mainly to make cards.

To make my first set of cards I used one piece of patterned paper that had ornaments all over it. I cut out each ornament and made a card with each ornament as a the focal point. I also used a sentiment from the Hero Arts stamp set Dimensional Layering Bird and the Avery Elle postage stamp die.

This is the paper I cut the ornaments from. I also used brads from the same collection.



Here's a video I made showing how I made these and why I picked this collection. I don't love it, but I think it's better than the last video I made at the beginning of the year. Hopefully, I'll like my next one better. Thanks for stopping by!  https://youtu.be/-Yi7AtX0AHw
