Sneak Peek Of The Boughs of Holly November Tutorial

in Cardmaking, Online Classes on 11/21/22

Hi Crafters, Bonjour,

I hope you had a wonderful weekend.  Our christmas lights have been installed outside of our home.  I have yet to decorate the inside of our home.  But my Christmas Card Classes have been going full swing before the holidays come and go. You can join me in person, virtually or work on my card classes on your own.

I designed a box full of love with the Boughs of Holly Suite! It contains tags, mini cards and embellishments.  The box has a coordinating design. I even embellished the cover.   The Boughs of Holly Suite is also available in French and called “la collection Branches De Houx.”  You can view the full collection and a variety of ideas on page 24 of the Mini Catalogue.  The Boughs Of Holly 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper has a variety of colourful designs.  For my project today, I focused on specific colors that blended together. I especially love the Textural Elements.  I added Wink of Stella to mine to add glimmer to the projects.  But if you desire a more colourful look, you can use your blends.

Color Combination Used:

Crumb Cake
Mossy Meadow
Evening Evergreen
Sahara Sand
Soft Succulent

The Leaves Of Holly Stamp Set is beautiful.  I especially love the mini greetings.  They are perfect for tags and mini cards.  The coordinating Holly Berry Dies adds the perfect element to any card or project.  I especially love the two different tags available in the dies collection.

The Boughs Of Holly Tutorial has a bunch of tips and tricks.  I made this tutorial for L’accent créatif November Tutorial.   I hope you liked my Sneak Peek. If you can understand French: I joined demonstrators from France and Quebec:  L’Accent Creatif. We’ve created 10 classes for you.  Get these French classes for FREE when you place an order in November for $60 or more.  New ideas every month.  Use November Hostess Code 7HKXXGHK If you are part of my team, you get these monthly tutorials for FREE.
