Greetings!
Earlier this summer I was introduced to a simple layout including a side flap fun fold and it has become one of my favorites. It's a simple way to give your card a little something extra without it being elaborate and time consuming.
When the mini catalog with all the holiday sets and papers come out I pore over it to try and decide which stamp sets will give me the most versatility, provide great sentiments for the front of the card as well as lovely messages for the inside, and good images to stamp and die cut. The Wishes All Around bundle checked all those boxes. I've made many cards using the bundle already and the gorgeous Joy of Christmas Designer Series Papers (DSP) provide a wonderful array of prints that pair well with it.
Sticking with traditional reds and greens for the holiday season is easy with beautiful prints like these, and the die cut berry twigs and Festive Pearls add a nice touch.
