Have you fallen in love with all the gorgeous products in the 2015 Holiday Catalogue yet? You will after doing this blog hop!! I’m excited to be a part of the ESAD 2015 Holiday Blog!! You may have come from the fabulous Jo Weedon’s blog or be starting the hop here with me.
So onto my projects!! I have to admit I was a little stumped on what to make as there are so many lovely products in this catalogue. I simply couldn’t decide which stamp set to use. I decided to try a sketch challenge and found one at Sweet Sunday Sketch that I liked.
You know how sometimes it’s really hard to cut up Designer Series Paper? Well, I’ve been having a bit of trouble cutting into the Home for Christmas DSP! So I’ve bitten the bullet and done it! Using the colour’s of the DSP, I layered up my card in Real Red, Pool Party and Delightful Dijon.
I used the Cozy Christmas stamp set and inked up the stamp using markers. Doesn’t it look fab!!
I also had to create a matching envelope using the Real Red envelope paper. Did you know that you can get 20 sheets for only $10.50. That’s a lot of cute envelopes!!
I just love the Snowflake as well especially with an Iced Rhinestone on it!!
I also liked the slightly larger Season stamp in the set so I made the same card using a different piece of the Home for Christmas DSP. Oh, and isn’t the Stripes Satin ribbon to die for? I wasn’t a fan to start with but it is very luxurious looking. I can see I’m going to use it a lot.
I hope you have enjoyed my cards for the hop today. I’d love for you to leave me a comment below.

The Paper and Stamp Addict 
I found this DSP so hard to use, but you’ve inspired me. Thank you Rebecca 🙂
Your colour combination is so gorgeous – really like what you have done 🙂
Two great cards and two different looks! Love them both! Thanks for sharing! Rochelle xo
Great project – I have the same issue as you with DSP but sometimes you’ve just got to get those scissors and cut! Thanks for sharing.
Love your cards Rebecca. You have the patience of a saint doing all that cutting. Great work. Thanks so much for being part of the ESAD Holiday Catalogue Blog Hop.
I also have the ‘precious DSP’ problem! *off to cut up my Home for Christmas DSP now and make a gorgeous card like yours*. Thanks for sharing Rebecca, Kelly x
Great cards Rebecca! You’ve definitely inspired me to use that DSP as a background. 🙂
Wow fabulous cards Rebecca, love the Designer Paper as the background

Just beautiful Rebecca! This is my favourite paper from the Holiday Catalogue too, and I’m also finding it hard to cut up!!!
The Red Envelope paper has gone closer to the top of my wishlist. Your envelopes are so cute with the matching DSP liners.
Beautiful cards Rebecca, the DSP is a favourite with my class.
Rebecca, your cards are fabulous! What a great idea and something a little different to make them square! I love the hand colouring of the sentiments using the Stampin’ Write Markers. It compliments the super cute DSP perfectly! I think I feel a CASE coming on!
I love your cards Rebecca. I like them in the square. That stamp set and paper are just great.
Gorgeous card Rebecca M gift to love that DSP ,
I just love both of these cards but the second one is my favourite. I resisted buying the stamp but I think you’ve made me reconsider! Love, love, love!
Lovely bright card, beautiful
Such a gorgeous card. Yet another DSP that I didn’t know that I needed.
You do need it! Lol
Oh Rebecca I have the same problem with cutting up that DSP..lol…I love your cards, just gorgeous. Thanks so much for sharing your lovely talents.
Gorgeous!! Love, love, love them all!!
Lovely card Rebecca, Square cards are just the best! and I completely understand about not wanting to cut into new DSP- it’s hard but sometimes it just has to be done, ou should be happy you did!
You have such a lot of participants in this bloghop, may just have to migrate to the couch to continue!
