Welcome to week sixteen of the Heart Of Christmas Blog Hop!
New product alert! Checkout the gorgeous Fitting Florets Collection!
It includes products that will be in the upcoming January-June Mini Catalogue, as well as three products of which will only be available from November 1 for a limited period of time.
The limited time products from this collection include:
- The Framed & Festive Stamp Set – a Christmas sentiment set
- The Fitting Florets DSP – both floral and patterned designs in Balmy Blue, Blushing Bride, Crushed Curry, Evening Evergreen, Night of Navy, Polished Pink, Soft Succulent.
For all my cards I’ve used the Evening Evergreen/Soft Succulent/Basic White leaves and berries patterned paper from the Fitting Florets DSP to make three Christmas Cards, changing the colours slightly for each card.
All three cards also use sentiments that are stamped and framed using the Framed Florets Bundle, available from November 1 until the end of June 2023.
Card one is a monochrome card that uses just the colours in this DSP pattern, along with die cut embellishments in Evening Evergreen Glimmer Specialty Paper, die cut using the Framed Florets dies.
White Classic Matte Dots coordinate with the white berries on the DSP.
Card two adds a touch of Petal Pink, with a layer of Petal Pink card stock and berries on the DSP coloured in with Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends!
Three Petal Pink Elegant Faceted Gems are the perfect embellishment to match the Petal Pink berries.
Card three adds Crumb Cake to the colour mix.
The stems of the Textural Elements are coloured with the Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends and the Natural Finish Ribbon has been stamped in Evening Evergreen using the “Merry Christmas” sentiment from the Framed & Festive Stamp Set.
Strips of leftover DSP and additional sentiments decorate the inside of all three cards.

A wonderful set of cards showcasing this fabulous new DSP and set of greetings. I love that you have used the same DSP on all three cards Catherine but achieved very different results. One is quite elegant, another playful and the other……a little bit country.
Oh, I love them all, Cathy. The stamping on the ribbon in your Crumb Cake card and the wood embellishments is so beautiful. The Petal Pink also works amazingly with these papers. I cannot choose a favourite, they are all gorgeous!
Your cards are so beautiful Cathy. I love the way you have used the same products and create 3 different cards. I love the way you have added colours to the berries and coordinated them to one of the layers. Gorgeous. Xxx
Wow! The first thing that caught my eye was the gorgeous green DSP. You’ve featured it so beautifully. The second thing was the stamped ribbon. Such a great idea that fits wonderfully with the colours and feel of the card.
Absolutely grogeous Cathy – how nice is that new DSP!! Love it!! Just love that it has all occasions patterns, but also suitable for Christmas! The oval you’ve cut with Evening Evergreen is divine!
Beautiful!!!
Oh My Goodness! Snap on the the DSP and sneak peak products my friend but your cards are just gorgeous and elegant and divine! Perfection is correct I agree with Christine! Perfection!!! They are beautiful!
Oh gosh Catherine, I don’t know where to start…..
All three cards are just gorgeous! I LOVE the stamped sentiment on the ribbon and the sprigs of textural elements with bows – just beautiful. Then two completely different looks using the new Framed Floret oval dies. The Evening Evergreen glimmer foliage looks stunning and I love the touch of Petal Pink berries.
*Sigh* …sooooo beautiful, Cath! I can’t pick a favourite; love them all. You have used these gorgeous new products, and co-ordinating embellishments, to perfection.
