Here are the second group of projects featuring the products from the 25 PRODUCTS UNDER $25 list using the Wrapped in Plaid suite!
I was inspired by the products featured on page 12 of the Holiday Catalog!
This suite speaks to a happy “O’ Christmas Tree” feeling. I love the traditional colors (Cherry Cobbler, Night of Navy, Shaded Spruce and Gold Foil accents) and patterns (plaid, holly berries, pine cones, and Christmas stocking) on the Specialty Designer Series Paper. The sentiments are great for either card or tags greetings.
Explore further and you find great versatility using the Perfectly Plaid stamp set and Pine Tree punch. Below I feature cards with Christmas Trees fronts stamped with ink using both classic and mock watercolor techniques. The stamps are perfect for tags on GOLD FOIL pizza boxes! These are great for treats since they are food safe. Look at all the perfect holiday projects you can get from this ONE suite! Happy Holidays!
