The Artisan Design Team is showcasing two beautiful collections for the Holidays, the All Is Bright Suite and the Making Christmas Bright Bundle and coordinating accessories. Both collections offer different styles for your crafting needs. The photographic images are elegant and beautiful.
You may have just arrived here from my wonderful and talented friend Kayla MacAulay from Australia. I adore her cards for today’s Hop!
I created two cards and made my own coordinating box for today’s hop. My choice of adding the bold photographic images from the All is Bright Designer Series Paper came from the idea of Christmas traditions in my home. This dsp reminds me of Christmas with my children. It’s been a tradition to go with my daughters since they are little to a tiny Christmas shop in a small town called Vankleek Hill, which is 10 minutes away. Over the years, we’ve built a collection of beautiful decorations from that shop. Carole, the owner has seen my kids grow, from babies to young ladies. This paper reminds me of the vintage, shabby chic look of the decorations we’ve accumulated over the years. The best part about the holidays for me are the memories and traditions, what are yours?
***The Stamp Sets are also available in French, Joyeux Noel A Tous et Illuminez Les Fetes as well as the thinlits, Poincons Thinlits Joyeux Noel.
Card #1
- Use cardstock from the All Is Bright Cardstock Pack for your background
- Add the All Is Bright Designer Series Paper on top
- Use Very Vanilla Lace Trim under the dsp banner
- Add a circle from the Joyous Noel Glimmer Paper
- Stamp in Real Red ink the greeting Christmas from the Merry Christmas To All Stamp Set

Tip: Coordinate products from the Annual Catalogue with the Holiday Catalogue. My favourite for this card was to combine the lace trim with the dsp.

** One of my favourite product from the All Is Bright Suite is the Merry Christmas Thinlits Dies. I love the look it adds to all crafting products. I’m crossing my fingers that Stampin’up! will come out with new words for the 2019 year.
