Join Melissa Phillips today as she shares some tips and tricks for creating a white Christmas on your next holiday project.“My Design Team Tips for you this week is all about creating your own White Christmas! I love creating in non-traditional color schemes for the holidays, and today I began with Classic Kraft, Stormy Sea, and Sheer Basics Vellum and anticipated where these neutral colors would take me. I knew that I wanted to add in a combination of white elements to create my White Christmas themed card. Items such as white glittered cardstock paired with my Snowfall Style dies, white embossing powder, and stamped images that resemble softly falling snow once embossing powder was added all contributed to the magical feel I was hoping for. I hope you’ll pull out some of your favorite Papertrey Ink products and experiment using some of the same elements I’ve used to create your White Christmas cards!”
