Greetings!
Today's card uses both the Golden Greenery bundle, which is all imagery stamps and dies, and the Greetings of the Season bundle, which is all words, phrases and sentiment stamps paired with a wonderful array of tag dies for them. It's hard to use one without the other, and what's an even bigger bonus is that some of the sheets in the Season of Green & Gold Designer Series Papers (DSP) are sized to cut out with dies from the Golden Greenery dies. Yay!
For the card today, I cut out three of the images from the DSP, grouped them together and added a simple oval tag with the sentiment on top. The sweet little polka dot print is from the same pack of DSP. I simply cut a slight angle to it, placed a strip of cardstock over the cut line, and added a solid piece of Very Vanilla cardstock at the top. The only stamping I did was the sentiment. If you're doing multiple cards for Christmas, these papers are a great value. You can cut out so many of the images, group them together, add a sentiment and you have a card put together in no time.
Isn't it lovely! The mistletoe and pine boughs and more are all beautifully printed with hints of gold, so you can have a card made in no time that looks like you spent a whole lot of time creating it.
The Season of Green & Gold is a fantastic suite of products. Two stamp and die bundles, gorgeous papers accented with gold foil, beautiful printed vellum papers, ribbon and embellishments. Since it was released online, it was a welcome collection for those wanting to get an early start on their holiday cards before the Sep-Dec Mini Catalog was available to order from.
