This weekend we were invited to dinner and, I must confess, I like to sometimes surprise my hosts. Instead of the traditional flower bouquet we usually bring when invited, I’d picked up a box of perfumed candles. I love candles at Christmas and spotted these because I particularly liked their trendy design and they perfectly seemed to fit my Christmas spirit….
The box of candles was the starting point of my inspiration and I decided to make a card that matched it.
First, I used December’s Snowflake Cut File (available via the like for ever subscriber Facebook group). The ‘Brr’ background comes from the cut apart patterned paper and I also used two Heidi Swap tags from the Documenting bundle.
Then, in addition to the card, I tried to wrap the present in a nice way, using another tag that reminds us of the one from the card. The stars on the tag are the cut outs from the snowflake’s center. I added the same type of sequin that I used on the card and stamped both the card and the wrapping with Pinkfresh Studio’s Oh Joy Stamp Set. To finish both the card and the wrapping, I added a wooden element. All these details on both the card and the tag create a unity.
