Welcome to an ESAD blog hop.
You may have arrived to my blog from my fellow Stampin Up! Demonstrator friend Rachel. The theme of this blog hop is to highlight our favourite products in the current Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalogue 2016-2017.
This is my first ever blog hop so I'm just a beginner at this, so hopefully I inspire someone.
For my projects I used the simplicity of Whisper White card stock and teamed with the beautiful Copper Foil Sheets (142020 pg 47). I'm more a less is best person, so I hope you like these projects.
My first project is a Christmas card, that all my family members will now receive. I used the Christmas Pines (142049) Stamp set and the co-ordinating Pretty Pines (141851) thinlits die (bundle 143496) all on page 19, for the feature of the card, and added the Layering Circles Framelits (141705) at the back to help make it pop a little.
Next I thought I would compliment the card with a lovely gift box. I used the wonderful White gift boxes (142000) pg 7).
To decorate both of these projects I used the Copper Embossing powder (141636 AC) to do the sentiments and the sprinkles of the belly band of the gift box. Using the Thinlits and Copper foil sheets cut out the embellishments and layered them on top of the circles. Very happy with the result.

Thanks for visiting my blog now its time to hop on over to Tanya's and check out her wonderful projects.
