Sam Osborn Christmas Paper Goods

November 21, 2012 // kristen // 0 replies

Sam Osborne’s Christmas collection feels like a fresh breath of crisp air on a sunny winter’s day. The holiday greeting cards and gift wrap designs are the perfect blend of frosty flakes and winter scenes, with a little bit of pop culture added for an extra festive touch. And I love that Sam used non-traditional holiday colors like sunny yellow and pink, which bring a modern feel to this fun collection.

Let It Snow Holiday Printables + Die Cuts

November 19, 2012 // kristen // 1 replies

My new holiday collection, “Let It Snow”, just launched, and it’s filled with wintry paper craft goodies. I’ve always loved winter and took my inspiration for the collection from some of my favorite winter things: snowflakes, warm and fuzzy sweaters & mittens, and the beauty of nature in the wintertime.

“Let It Snow” features a set of digital printable papers for all sorts of paper crafts; fun printable gift tags to embellish your presents; and winter-themed die cutting files, including one of my favorite items from the collection, gift card holders that look like little sweaters all wrapped up in boxes. The front of each sweater folds out to reveal the gift card inside. Fun!

Head on over to k.becca to find out more and to see the full collection.
