Fa La La – Global Design Project #6

Fa La La - Global Design Project #6I truly think Stampin’ Up! knocked it out of the park this year with their papers! So many pretty options! This pattern in from the “Merry Moments” Designer Series Paper Pack, the 12″ x 12″ pack (there is also a 6″ x 6″ paper pack but this pattern isn’t in it).  The clean and simple lines of the design sketch this week from the Global Design Project really lets the paper shine 🙂

GDP006I had a bit of fun with the small line of greeting in the sketch…mine is a bit larger 🙂

Fa La La - Global Design Project #6I just happened to have the ‘Fa La La’ sentiment on my desk, a leftover from a previous project and thought it worked here perfectly! The Santa is from the Antique Tags Host set in the Stampin’ Up! Holiday Catalog. I double stamped him and popped the center up on Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Did you see the tiny silver thread running along the strip of Real Red cardstock? It’s Silver Cording Trim, also in the Holiday catalog. It adds just the right amount of sparkle to my clean and simple card.

    I love it Shannon!! I couldn’t agree more about these DSP’s either. I think they made a hard sketch easy! Love the big sentiment and the elegant silver cording trim. Thanks so much for playing at Global Design project this week ♥

    Hi Shannon! Wow, this is beautiful. I love the hint of silver trim running through the middle and keeping it clean with the grey and red colour combo. A great card for our sketch challenge this week! Thanks so much for playing along at the Global Design Project, your card is fabulous! xo

    Wow, this is something else! The striped DSP is perfect for the sketch and I really love the colors. The icing on the cake for me is the vintage Santa and the fun sentiment. So cool!
