Stampin’up!’s Nests Of Winter Suite Collection Card #1

in 12 weeks of Christmas, Cardmaking on 11/19/24

Hello Crafters, Bonjour!

How was your weekend? I had a great time decorating outside since the weather was so mild.  I also had a coffee date with my hubby.  We went to the gym together.  I attended the Annual Louis Riel Vigil.  After the ceremony, Chris and I attended a dinner at the RCMP Heritage Center where we ate the most amazing homemade chicken vegetable dumpling soup and bannock.  I learned so much about the Metis Culture.

12 Weeks of Christmas, Week 8:  

Today starts week 8 of My Christmas Series.  I am featuring the Nests Of Winter Suite Collection.  I love this collection cause it doesn’t feel as much christmas-ish… and I can use it for other occasions especially in the winter months.  It’s so practical, especially with our Canadian Winters… I feel I can relate to this collection.

For our first card, it was all about layers and a little papercrafting surgery.

The day I saw the entire Suite Collection, I knew I had to get it.  I love the neutral tones, the textures and the bird theme.  I love to use linen thread on my creations and to have 3 new colors in neutral tones was so appealing.  Also, both sides of the Nests of Winter Designer Series Paper are stunning.

For all of these reasons, I knew I had to make it a papercrafting event featuring the Nest of Winter Suite Collection.

I have 3 spots left for my class in person in Ontario or my kits to go.  You can check out the details HERE.  

Color Combination:

Gray Granite
Crumb Cake
Night of Navy
Pool Party
