Rustic Crate for the holidays

Posted on by

What do you think of when you think of the holidays? For me one of the things is poinsettias, since every year they were a gift to family and friends and decorated our house and the local mall. Remember the poinsettia trees of the 70’s? So the Rustic Crate Bundle (162268) brings back those childhood memories of that bold pop of red again the cold snowy landscapes.

And of course, Frosty and the green house that contained those exotic plants, the poinsettia. lol

Today’s cards use the poinsettia to create lovely cards. This first one has a traditional feel with its Shaded Spruce and Cherry Cobbler color palet.

The lovely gingham check is from our Joy of Christmas Designer Series Paper (161958). Don’t you love how these dies both cut and emboss their image? And the handle on the crate is a bit of our Natural 1/4″ Wavy Trim (161517). A bit of shine was added behind the crate with the Rustic Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots (159082). And this next card has a bit more contemporary feel to it since it uses the lovely Moody Mauve and Blackberry Bliss.

Once again a little shine has been added with the Simply Elegant Trim (155766) and interest has been added to the background with a bit of our Blending Brushes and splatter using our Water Painters (151298). Adding splatter like this is quick and easy to do simply pick up some diluted reinker and tap against your finger until you get the look you like. With a little bit of practice you can create different size splatter for your projects.

Enjoy! And don’t forget to stop back by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing a fun tutorial with you using the Sparkling Snowflake Stamp set.

Today’s cards use the Rustic Crate images for Autumn. This set is one of those with lovely images and sentiments that you can use through the fall, winter and even spring. Simply switch out the image that fills the crate or use it on it’s own.

Today’s cards use the fall image on it’s own. This first card teams up two of our In Colors, Copper Clay and Pebbled Path.

The Artistic Mix Decorative Masks (159178) add a bit of interest to the background and the 2023-2025 In Color Jute Trim (161637) adds a bit of texture to the card. And this next card has a more traditional autumn color pallet.

Stampin’ Blends have been used to create bold color on the image and a bit of color has been added to the panel using our Blending Brushes (153611). A bit of the Burlap Ribbon found in our Combo Pack (160386) has been used to add a bit of texture and the crate image has been stamped in Pecan Pie to create a tone on tone back drop.

So what do you think? Can you see this Bundle as a choice for your crafting needs? Why not stop by my Online Store and check this and other choices for your fall crafting needs?
