Perfectly Plaid Patchwork Pine Cards
I love the patchwork background on these cards from my Perfectly Plaid Class Kit! We'll be creating four each of this design, giving stampers plenty of chance to mix & match their favorite Wrapped In Plaid Designer Series Papers. So, so pretty!
Background Basics—I started with a Night of Navy card base and added a 4-1/4" x 1-1/2" piece of Gold Foil that I embossed with the Hammered Metal Embossing Folder. Ooooh, I love that texture! It looks like hammered metal on one side and like a pebbles or reptile skin on the other…very versatile!
Patchwork Pattern—For the patchwork background, I cut four 1-1/2" x 2-1/4" Wrapped In Plaid DSP rectangles, two each of two designs. I layered them onto a 3-1/4" x 4-3/4" piece of Whisper White cardstock and mounted it to the card front with SNAIL adhesive.
Perfect Pine—I stamped the Perfectly Plaid whimsical pine image in Golden Glitz Delicata Metallic Ink onto Shaded Spruce cardstock, then punched it out with the Pine Tree Punch. I popped it up onto a Whisper White Stitched Shapes die-cut, then adhered the oval to the card front with SNAIL.
Options: If you don't have the new Delicata gold ink, you could gold emboss the tree or simply stamp in Shaded Spruce ink for a tone-on-tone look.
Bundle It & SAVE—Purchase the Perfectly Plaid stamp set and Pine Tree Punch together in a Bundle to save 10%!
Finishing Touches—I stamped the Perfectly Plaid sentiment in Cherry Cobbler onto a 1/2" wide strip of Whisper White, then fishtail cut the ends. It's layered over the pine tree with SNAIL and a couple of Dimensionals. I finished with a Linen Thread bow attached with a pinched Glue Dot.
Two Cool—My second version starts with a Shaded Spruce card base and I lowered the Gold Foil accent layer closer to the bottom.
I also lowered the sentiment to the bottom of the oval and attached the bow to the center of the tree. I love this look!
Class Projects—Here are all four cards that I created with the Perfectly Plaid Class Kit. The kit also contains two more card designs, four of each, for a total of 12 holiday cards!
