Bright Holidays

Inspiration: Try Stampin' On Tuesday #387 + SUO challenge #213

I'm catching up on downline cards and using challenge sketches as inspiration. The simple TSOT sketch was perfect to go with the Making Christmas Bright stamp set. The sentiment reads, "May your Holidays be bright." I used some of my favorite Designer Series Paper, the All is Bright collection. I had previously embossed some red paper with the Curls & Twirls embossing folder, but had not used the pieces on my cards because the paper had cracked. For this design, I didn't mind the cracking too much and decided to reuse the leftover pieces. A lot of scraps were used for this project: I was able to get a lot of lightbulbs out of a strip of white cardstock, and also a strip of gold foil paper (the lightbulb tops and the thin strip at the bottom of the red paper).

Beautiful, Cindy! I think these bulb sets were my runaway faves this year - love your use of the DSP to go with, as well! Thanks so much for playing at TSOT!
