Just Us Girls #754 ~ Greetings

Carol has a delightful Mood Board for us this week at Just Us Girls. Isn't this oodles of fun? There are so many delightful things to choose from! My eyes went straight to those cutie little gingerbread house ornaments on the bottom left and then to the mug on the top with all of that whipped cream ~ YUM!

 
I bought the sweetest paper pad by Mintay Papers after the holidays last year. When thumbing through it recently, I found the perfect piece for Carol's challenge! This card was so quick and easy. A PPP die cut border, a snowy embossing folder and a last year leftover sentiment by The Greetery all came together for this festive little number!
 
We do hope you'll join us this week. The team and our guest designer, Jenn Borgeson have put together some wonderful inspiration for you. Be sure to stop by the blog for a look!

Lisa, I have been eyeing those Mintay papers - but had to say NO as I have so many pretty papers to use up! You're so right about this one being 'perfect' as I spy with my little eye lots of sweet gingerbreads to love!

What gorgeous paper with pretty gingerbread and the other fun Christmas elements from our moodboard! Such a pretty scene topped off with the snowfall background and a great sentiment!

TK said...

That is DARLING paper, Lisa, and it fits you perfectly! What a cute card, and your interpretation of the gingerbread house and fluffy whipped cream are wonderful

Claire said...

That paper is absolutely gorgeous Lisa - I love it! Perfect take on the mood board and the way you've been inspired by the whipped cream is so clever!

Birgit said...

This is adorable, and I can see why you "needed" that paper pack. I adore the papers from Mintay and never want to cover them up. This is the perfect way to use them.

I have never heard of Mintay, and now of course, I need to find them! Your card is so fun and festive. I love that little scene, snowy sky and the way you placed your sentiment. Great take on the moodboard!

Leslie Miller said...

This card has it all! Love those Mintay papers. I had to cut back because I have so many, but only one Christmas pad which I use a little bit every year. This one is especially cute! Your design featuring the paper is beautifully creative with the border and embossing. Wonderful, Lisa!

Loll said...

Beautiful card Lisa. LOVE the details you've added to these amazing papers. The topnote shape of your snowflake and gray background really shows off the gorgeous (and delicious looking!) gingerbread. Leslie uses Mintay papers a lot and I have taken a look at their website. Yikes, I could get lost in there for weeks! :) xx
