One of the things I enjoy most about our Paper Goods collections is seeing how a few thoughtfully chosen pieces can come together to tell a story. Today's projects from STAMPgirl Stephanie capture the fun and whimsy of the holiday season, proving that Christmas crafting doesn't have to wait until December!
For her first card, Stephanie created a cheerful holiday scene using one of the Campers of Cheer Ephemera Cuts as the focal point. She layered it over a festive forest created with our Simply Christmas Card Fronts, finishing the card with one of our Simple Christmas Clear Stickers. I love how the camper, presents, and colorful trees work together to create a playful little Christmas adventure.
Her second card takes a clean-and-simple approach with plenty of holiday sparkle. Stephanie created the festive red background using our Onion in Raws Stencil, then paired another Campers of Cheer Ephemera Cut with a sentiment from our Simple Christmas Clear Stickers. A few metallic embellishments finish the card beautifully, letting the camper remain the star of the design.
Creative Takeaway
One thing that caught my eye is how Stephanie used two very different backgrounds to create completely different holiday scenes. One feels playful and storybook-inspired with the collage Christmas trees, while the other has a clean, graphic look that lets the festive camper take center stage.
It's a great reminder that changing the background can completely transform the feel of a project, even when you're working with products from the same collection.
