Amazing Paper Grace

The ordinary and unexpected gift of stamping

She Will Give Birth

Posted by Becca Feeken on Friday, November 13th, 2009

 

Hello there!!  What a gorgeous sentiment from Our Daily Bread Designs and their November release called Christmas Verses.  I love this set because I can’t tell you how many times I purchased "Merry Christmas" and such – this gives me something a little bit different and majestic that really catches the eye.

I couldn’t resist the classic layout for the card but the design paper really gives it some umph.  My central panel is cut from Spellbinders Labels Four.  I have to admit that I would never pick this color combination but thanks to K&Co, I think the tealish color and red are dazzling.  Accented by the poinsettias on the design paper, the red bow pops.

Card Recipe:
Stamps:  Our Daily Bread Designs – Christmas Verses
Paper:  The Paper Company, Bazzill, K&Co – Evergreen Mat Pad
Ink:  Versafine Onyx Black
Accessories:  Spellbinders Labels Four, Ribbon, Clear Embossing Powder

I hope your day was extra special.  I’m out of pocket right now so my commentary is brief today.  I’ll be back with my longwindedness soon ;-)

    The poinsettias really pop out – I thought they were silk ones at first.
    Beautiful combination and layering. Love the ribbon.

    Your attention to detail really pays off. I went back up to look at the card after I read the description, and saw several things I hadn’t noticed first time around. I would never have thought to put the tan/brown/yellow (gold?) layer, but it makes everything pop. The placement of the poinsettias is perfect. A truly beautiful card.

    I wish I had your creativity. You are a beautiful designer.

    Another winner, Becca! I really like the designer paper behind everything – really lovely!!!

    This is a “majestic” and totally befitting the verse. The colors and the layout are perfect together. Stamping the verse on DP is something I have yet to try. You are my inspiration!! There are hundreds of designers on the net, but I don’t think I can recall any who “consistently” designs fabulous cards. I have also looked at many of your cards in your archives and card after card is simply magnificent! Amazing

    Becca,
    Just gorgeous! The dp really is stunning.
    And the sentiment is beautiful. Again…..gorgeous creation.

    Have a wonderful weekend.

    Wow! Those colors are great! I wouldn’t have thought to put them together either but that’s the great thing about dp, it adds so much to our creative thinking! Using the spellbinders on the dp and stamping on the dp for the central panel really caught my attention. I’m used to using and seeing the solid colors used in this way, ah the possibilites!! Ok I’m overwhelmed with them and it’s not even 8am here.

  25. Debbie Olsonon 19 Nov 2009 at 11:23 am 25

    So lovely, Becca–a perfect Christmas card IMO!

  26. Judyon 22 Nov 2009 at 10:16 am 26
