If you are like me, you hate to cut up those beautiful designer series papers. We tend to hoard them don’t we. Last year’s Holiday catalog had the Home for Christmas designer series paper. I positively love it and as you can see, I still have some left over. On this card, I used a strip of the red striped design down the center of the card. Another design has these adorable little Rudolph deer. While I could have used that design to cover the whole front of the card, I chose to cut out the deer and back it with a piece of cardstock punched with the Pretty Label punch (143715). The greeting is from a retired stamp set Bells and Boughs.

Here is another card using a different pattern from the Home for Christmas designer series paper. This pattern was an all-over pattern of poinsettias. I simply cut out one of the flowers and layered it over a piece of ribbon. The background was created with the new Tufted 3-D Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (146335) and the greeting is from the Ready for Christmas stamp set (photopolymer – 144823),
