Accelerate your Holiday Card-Making using the Toile Tidings Suite of Products

  • Stampin' Up! Toil Tidings Suite - paper, ribbons, glitter enamels
  • Everything Festive Stamp Set 
  • Holiday Card Classes happening this week end

Stampin' Up! Toile Tidings Designer Series Paper

Here's an idea for a lovely Christmas Card that will go together quickly and looks very festive.  It uses the Everything Festive Stamp Set, which is filled with Sentiments you'll find useful for Fall, Winter, and Spring Occasions. And, the Toile Tidings Designer Series Paper, which includes prints in classic colors of Garden Green and Real Red.  The Garden Green 3/8" Double Stitched Ribbon along with the paper and Toile Tidings Glitter Enamel Dots are all part of the Stampin' Up! Toile Tidings Suite.  You'll love how easy it is to coordinate items on you cards when you purchase items in Stampin' Up! suites.            
     
  





For today's card, I used a basecard of Thick Very Vanilla Cardstock.  Then a layer of Garden Green.  The Designer Series Paper I selected is a print from the Toile Tidings Designer Series Paper. If you look closely, you'll find the fox, rabbit and some of the trees from the Nature's Beauty Stamp Set are part of this print, and you'll love decorating the inside of your card and your envelope with  matching elements from the Nature's Beauty Stamp Sets.    


  



For the sentiments, I selected a couple of dies from the Detailed Bands Dies and cut an ornate Garden Green mat and the Very Vanilla sentiment label using Dies from this set.    I stamped the sentiments from the Everything Festive Stamp Set using Garden Green ink, and popped the sentiment label up on Dimensionals before adding it to the card.  I added a Garden Green Toile Tidings Glitter Enamel Dots to each end of the label.   

The Garden Green 3/8" Double-Stitched Ribbon finishes the card. 





    


If you're thinking of CASING this idea for your Holiday cards, be sure to place your order with enough time so you'll receive your items before the Holiday shipping rush.  Remember, only 48 days until Christmas!  Your loved ones will enjoy receiving a handmade card from your over the holidays.  And, you'll love everything you make with this beautiful Toile Tidings Suite of coordinating products.
