Christmas Carols Inspiration

Happy Friday everyone!  I’m sure you are busy with last-minute prep for the holidays.  If you haven’t started your card-making, it’s not too late!  I’ve chosen some simple designs from the Holiday catalog to CASE (Copy & Share Everything) that fit this week’s theme at TGIF Challenges.  Our creations are inspired by Christmas Carols and we would love for you to play along with us.  If you don’t celebrate Christmas, you can choose a song from whatever holiday you celebrate.  Click HERE to view the Design Team’s inspiration cards.

Check out page 14 of the Holiday Catalog.  Can you see which cards I copied?  One of them is part of a scrapbook page!  Both of my cards today use the Merry Little Christmas Memories & More Card Pack.  These card packs are just perfect for whipping up a quick, simple card.

On this first card, I started with a Whisper White card base, then layered a trimmed-down piece of Crumb Cake pattern card from the Memories & More pack.  I’ve been dying to cut into this beautiful plaid paper from the Christmas Around the World Designer Series Paper, so this was a perfect fit.  The greeting is from one of the 3″ x 4″ cards and I trimmed it to fit onto the black-striped border card.  Instead of ornaments, I embellished the final card with a simple White Baker’s Twine bow.

This copied card is also pictured on page 14.  You’ll notice that I stepped it up a bit.  I added the plaid paper and switched to green trees with White Craft ink plus Clear wink of Stella.  The musical note paper is from the Merry Music Specialty Designer Series Paper Pack.

Again, we would love for you to join our challenge and play along.  You’ll find all the details HERE.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
