What’s better than a card created with scraps of some of the most beautiful paper ever? Ever Eden Specialty Designer Series Paper had Evening Evergreen, Soft Succulent, and gold in its designs (I say “had” because although it was available in the Clearance Rack after it retired, it is now gone). The gold was not obnoxious, just rich. So here I combined two Ever Eden patterns with the equally beautiful Distressed Gold Specialty Paper.
This October Jingle Jump card is so simple, consisting of three 1″ wide strips adhered to a panel at an angle and embossed. The embossing gives it a quilted feel, but also serves as to “mash” the strips so they are less likely to lift if they are not completely adhered from edge to edge. In addition, embossing a panel that is the same color as the card base is a good way to give it some contrast without adding a mat.
Although we made this as a Christmas card, using other long sentiments it totally works as a birthday or anniversary card. I’ll show you one of my most frequently used birthday sentiments later this week.
