DT: Kingston Crafts – Holly Jolly slimline papers

Of course when working with the slimline papers they are perfect for DL shaped cards so had to make one for my DT projects!

I had a flick through the massive stack of papers in the slimline pack and decided to go with a different colour than the usual cards I made with navy and aqua and the bauble paper stood out as being a fun way to incorporate the two colours.

I added a base of the navy solid with the baubles paper on top and then a panel of the aqua polka dots for the front of the card. I then took the solid aqua and the solid navy and die cut the larger bauble. I stacked the two together and then adhered flat onto the card.

Next I went through the ribbon stash and found this pretty navy ribbon edged with rose gold and created the bow.

Then I grabbed a sentiment already made up and added that.

Love how the papers go together so well – you could easily choose a different colour scheme and replicate this card too as I think the viable papers has so many other colours you could match with … thinking red and green and even pink and white!

At the beginning of this post I said these were unusual colours for me – well that was true back in June/July when I made this – but I’ve been obsessed with navy recently so this no longer rings true! How funny? I wonder if this was the card that started the navy obsession?

Happy crafting!
