I wanted to do something that I don’t normally do, so I decided to go for a square card! Normally I’m a firm A6 girl, but sometimes I do like to ring the changes, and why not for Christmas! This card features strips of the beautiful bauble designed paper. It really shows off the copper foiling nicely. I added a Stitched Star die in Very Vanilla, some ribbon and a few of the Brightly Gleaming Foil Elements. Just so you know, they match the Stitched Stars perfectly!

Next up, I went back to my A6 comfort zone but mixed it up a little with the Free Skate stamp set which has the perfect size of holly leaves and berries to coordinate with the Foiled foliage. I should have checked the dies that come with Free Skate as a bundle, but just started fussy cutting the holly without thinking! Silly me, I could have saved myself a little time as yes, there is a die for the holly! The colours in this paper pack are luxurious, rich and deep. They automatically make your projects look special, which is why I think they’ve flown out the door so fast. Special is what Christmas is all about after all.

      Hi Fanny it is actually flat, it just needs a square 6×6 envelope. Which is ok here in the UK but maybe not in Europe!!
