It is Holly Time…

I’m getting ready for Christmas and the new November 2021 sentiment kit from Unity Stamp Company is going to be a must-have. I’m loving the vintage holly look and all the great holiday and anytime sentiments in the kit. I’m quite inspired by the vintage look and have two cards to inspire you today.

The Details

I attempt a variety of Christmas and holiday cards every year. It is always a mix of traditional, non-traditional, cute, and classic. Most of my cards are a range of styles anyway since I just create with what inspires me or who I’m going to be gifting a card. I like the variety as it makes my little creative heart happy.

Today, I have this set of vintage-looking Christmas cards. The new Cherished Holly sentiment kit is so perfect for this style. I just choose some vintage-looking patterned paper, distressed all the edges with a bit of Distress Ink, and then simply colored with a few Copic alcohol markers. I only made two cards, but now I want to make a bunch more and play with more patterned papers and layouts. It was so fun to mix and match the different sentiments in the kit too.

Hope you’ll check out the video below for all the details.
