This week we're asking you to create a card inspired by this lovely Mid Century Modern Christmas photo from Edward George:
You might take your inspiration from the fun little Santas, the unique patterns and colors on the Christmas Trees, or even the Reindeer or gold star on the top of the Christmas Tree. Just make sure you tell us how you were inspired in your post.
Here's what inspired our cards this week:
Stephanie says, "I started with this fun vintage Santa die cut from Pretty Little Studio that reminded me of the one on the fireplace mantle. Next, I found a piece of grey designer paper from 49th & Market to bring in the grey of the stone fireplace. I also matted it on a grey card base. I added a green stitches sticker from Pretty Little Studio down the left side before attaching my Santa and Stamper's Anonymous Tim Holtz Tiny Text Christmas Sentiment with foam tape."
Lauren says, "The first thing I noticed in the photo was alllllllllll of that beautiful blonde wood. The walls, the mantel, even the small glimpses of the floor and ceiling we can see at the edges of the picture are covered in it. And since one of the "niche" collections inside my massive papercrafting stash happens to be woodgrain papers, I was pretty sure I could find one (or as it turned out three) woodgrain papers that would/WOOD work! I also stumbled upon some *ancient* Daisy D's retro-themed holiday paper which I cut into little shapes with my Hero Arts Fancy Ornament Infinity Dies, surrounded by shimmering stars and a (woodgrain, of course!) sentiment."
