Welcome to day three of project shares for the Paper Sweeties December *new* product release … all new products went LIVE in the shop on 12/1 – four pretty holiday & winter theme stamp sets, one new coordinating die set, some rusty bells, chenille candy canes … and, of course, several money saving bundles too! I hope you had fun hopping yesterday to all of the sweeties teamies’ blogs to check out their absolutely amazing inspiration projects – such pretty projects!!
For today’s project share, I created a holiday card using baby pink shimmer cardstock that I embossed with a holly leaf and berry folder and then layered sage green, black and white cardstock to create an interesting and unexpected color palette for this holiday card!
I stamped the wreath, bow and sentiment images using the Noel build a wreath set and the Season of Love stamp set! I added a row of white lace Washi tape along the bottom of the sage cardstock and finished my design by adding champagne colored pearls to the sage green wreath for a little dimension!
Please be sure to visit the rest of the teamies’ blogs to be inspired by their project shares today:

Beautiful card my dear! Love your sweet wreath and the embossed shimmery pink card stock! Gorgeous as always! Off to look at the December release – FINALLY!! 🙂
Oh my! I just love that wreath!!
That embossed pink shimmer paper is such an eye catcher for the layers of loveliness card. The wreathe and bow are a must for every one of us.
