Bells & Boughs Revisited...
December 01, 2013
Welcome, December. Welcome, winter. Welcome, holiday crazyness. And welcome Papertrey Ink December Sr Team challenge.
The first of the month brings another Sr Team challenge for the Papertrey Ink DT. Each month we feature an older set and revisit it to bring you some fresh inspiration. This month we are featuring Bells & Boughs. I don't feel like I can call this a "revisit" because Bells & Boughs is one of those sets that I don't think I've ever actually put away. You can't really "revisit" something you've never left, right? It's definitely one of my favorites.
Nichole challenged us to put this set to use in creating a card and tag. I decided it might be fun to combine the bells images with the newly released Confetti Borders dies and stamps.
I used a bright and fun color scheme of Pure Poppy, Raspberry Fizz, Hawaiian Shores, and Simply Chartreuse. This set can go rustic or bright and fun...you can really get so many different looks depending on color and paper choices. I always love that in a set.
For my tag I created a shaker tag (kind of in love with shaker tags lately) using the Tag Sale #8 die. I stuck with the same colors scheme and used some Confetti Garland snowflake strands in the background. The sentiment was stamped on the clear cardstock using Staz On ink.
Thanks for stopping by today to check out my latest project using Papertrey Ink's Bells & Boughs set. For more fresh inspiration on this great holiday set, but sure to hop around to the other DT girls to see what they have in store for you...
