Holiday Card Series - Day 11

Morning, all!

For today’s card, I wanted to use some patterned paper, but didn’t want to cover it up too much. The paper was too cute! So, I kept the card front simple and allowed the patterned paper to be seen.

I also used BasicGrey’s Rubon Roller to apply the Crate Paper Rubons. I got this tool just a couple months ago and I’m so obsessed with it. I took it to a scrapbook night with some friends back in September and one of the other girls almost walked off with it because she loved it so much! LOL! It really is an awesome tool for applying rubons. I would recommend it. It has a permanent home on my craft desk now. :)

Anyhow, enjoy!

NOTE: I’ve received a LOT of questions about the music included in the videos. It is a 10-second clip of royalty-free music I purchased online. It’s not a real song from an album. :)

I have already watched this video three times! I love this paper and I love how you pull out colors that I otherwise would look over in a pattern paper. You have such a great eye for details.

The paper you used for this is so adorable!

Billie Anderson November 16, 2009 at 8:01 pm

I like the idea of not covering up the pretty paper and using it as the focal point and just adding the little touch to finish it off. Great tool also for the rub-ons, thanks for the video.

Hi Kristina,
I could have sworn that you had that rub on tool a while back… I remember seeing it somewhere (I thought here) and I was OBSESSED with getting it, and finally did. I love it, too.
Really like your card today – and can’t believe you have over 2,800 comments for the give away. Pretty awesome following!

This is great-I never know what to do with paper like this. Now I do. I love my BG rubon tool too!

I just bought some Christmas patterned paper with similar designs and I definitely wanted it to be the highlight of the card so this is very helpful! :)

Eveline van Heijst November 17, 2009 at 8:49 am

Great paper. Lovely card.
Eveline.

Loved the card. I really love the red card stock. I’m getting great ideas for Christmas Cards this year. I better get started!

Terri November 17, 2009 at 6:28 pm

Adorable card! The red AC cardstock matches the patterned paper perfectly. Do you happen to know which color you used (red wasn’t a choice when I visited the AC site)? Thanks.

Barb. Smith November 18, 2009 at 11:04 am

Another great card. I love the simplicity.

Judy November 18, 2009 at 12:51 pm

Just discovered this series though I´ve been watching the Friday your card videos on 2 Peas for some time. Anyway, thanks! And even though I try to clean up constantly and don´t have a lot in my scrap area as am just a beginner, things still tend to get messy quickly. Thanks again for the videos!
