Can I tell you I LOVE the Peaceful Garden Designer Series paper? And this print in particular? It has that moody blue holiday feeling, but it transitions into so many other roles. Time for a good This or That!

The Christmas Words Hybrid Embossing Folder has every expression you can imagine. You can choose to use it as a background folder or add the die to the “sandwich” and cut each one out. I’ve added color with Cloud Cover Stampin’ Blends and it was very forgiving.

• Stamps: Peace on Earth
• Color Palette: Basic White, Cloud Cover, Misty Moonlight
• Accessories: Stamp Cut & Emboss Machine, Christmas Words Collage hybrid embossing folder, Textured Notes Dies, Cloud Cover Stampin’ Blends, Misty Moonlight & Silver Edge ribbon, Peaceful Garden DSP, Linen Thread, Stampin’ Dimensionals

But then I turned the layout on its side and changed the sentiment – and I think it makes a lovely sympathy card. I really like the Linen Thread on this card.

So what do you think? Landscape or Portrait? Christmas or Sympathy? or maybe a mash-up? In either case, give it a try. It’s a quick and easy way to use that DSP stash.
