Evergreen Border Punch for As You See It Challenge

 This is a short post today because it's the start of OnStage and I have 2 other blog posts to write for As You See It Challenges as well! It's a new Recipe Challenge today cooked up by Team Member Jan. Check out the challenge banner:

I always love creating in shades of neutral. I find them very warm and comforting. I decided to try a Christmas card in neutral tones:

• On an Early Espresso base I added an embossed sheet of Soft Suede using the Evergreen Forest 3D embossing folder.
• I used the Evergreen Border Punch and punched out 3 borders of evergreen trees: one in Gray Granite cardstock; one in Very Vanilla cardstock; and one in Copper Brushed Metallic cardstock.
• I arranged those in a staggered way on the card front to create depth. I used glue dots to attach the back two borders, but used black dimensionals for the front metallic border to increase the illusion of depth.
• On a scalloped circular label die cut with the Tasteful Labels dies I embossed the one word sentiment Noel from the Tidings and Trimmings stamp set in Copper embossing powder. It is mounted with dimensionals over a layer of the Gold Shimmer Ribbon from the Blackberry Beauty suite and added little snippets of Early Espresso Faux Suede Trim and Gold Fine Art Ribbon.

Eden's Garden Sympathy

 I just wanted to post quickly to show you the beauty of the new Eden's Garden Suite that is now available to everyone until January 4th. The stamp set and dies will be part of the upcoming 2022 Jan/Jun Mini Catalogue, but the specialty DSP, the Cotton Paper and the gems will only be available while supplies last or January 3rd, whichever comes first!

Unfortunately, a friend of mine lost her husband recently and I was glad to have such an elegant suite available in order to make her a sympathy card.

• The background paper is the Ever Eden Specialty Designer Series Paper along with the Ever Eden Cotton Paper in gorgeous shades of Evening Evergreen, Soft Succulent with gold metallic highlight in the DSP.
• The die cuts create elegant wreaths, borders tags and some foliage.
• The garden gems are in shades of Soft Succulent and Cherry Cobbler with two shapes and sizes.
• I embossed the sentiments from Inspired Thoughts stamp set using Gold Embossing Powder.
