Nothing’s Better Than? Coffee of Course! And using up Christmas Patterned Paper

Nothing’s Better Than? Coffee of Course! And using up Christmas Patterned Paper. In my mission to spend some time looking at the Annual Catalogue, I also thought I would use up some of my Designer Series Paper. So many of our Christmas Papers have ‘generic’ patterns included and the Pointsettia Place Paper is a case in point. I love the wood design on the reverse of the berry pattern.

Nothings Better Than Bumblebee Oldstablescrafts.co.uk

I have always been a fan of all wood patterns, and this one is just so versatile. Other than cutting into a whole sheet, I had just enough to cut a smaller layer for this card. I kept with some of the colours in the papers, even though my main colour, Bumblebee, is not actually in the pattern I am using. Knowing it is in the other patterns gives me the confidence to use it here. I stamped two cups with 2nd generation ink and one with full strength. It was the full strength that I placed in the middle on a Dimensional.

Paired with Soft Suede, rather than Early Espresso, which is the brown in the paper, it gives a real softness to the card. If you follow the Retro Feel of the Coffee Cups you can end up with a slightly hard feel to your design, but by choosing the palette I have, as well as the curves of the wood, really acts as a contrast. The Gingham Ribbon is the finishing touch to the softness, although the pattern on the ribbon is linier, the fabric does provide some additional softness.

Before I die cut the words I added adhesive sheet to the reverse of the Gold Foil and Soft Suede card, before cutting one each in Gold Foil and two each of the Soft Suede. I layered them up to give some dimension to the words, this is a very simple technique, but makes such a difference to the finished words, making them (literally and metaphorically) stand out from the layer.
