New Classic Christmas Perfect Pairs

I’m back with a 2nd post to share with you a brand-new concept from STAMPlorations – Perfect Pairs! Check them out here

If you love creating beautiful handmade cards but sometimes find yourself searching through your stash for the perfect sentiment, background or embellishment to finish your design, you’re going to love this idea.

Perfect Pairs brings everything together for you.

Each collection combines a coordinating two-stamp set with a pack of beautifully designed coordinating ephemera cuts. The two have been designed together from the very beginning, so everything works seamlessly together. 

 I was lucky enough to receive the Perfect Pairs Classic Christmas available here collection to play with, and it really does make creating a Christmas card wonderfully simple. The Classic Christmas collection contains a two-stamp set featuring a sentiment stamp and a coordinating background stamp, along with 11 full-colour ephemera pieces.

This is the card

Today I'm sharing my 2nd make. This card is even quicker to make than my first sample. 

I selected the Nutcracker and bells from the Ephemera pack and gold embossed the sentiment onto a piece of black card. 

I added some extra sparkly twine to the bells to give added texture and sparkle. 

I added a little distress ink to the white edges (you can of course keep the edges as they are but I am a bit of a grungy girl and like to ink them!).

I just used gold paper and a square of gold mirror card to create the front of my card and adhered my elements in place. I raised them up on foam pads to add some extra dimension. 

And that's it! No inky background, just gold paper and mirror card!
