This week at the Global Design Project, we are CASEing the Designer, and our inspiration comes from the very talented Krista Frattin!

For my card, I chose to CASE the basic layout of Krista’s beautiful design. I loved the three main elements across the centre, the layers running behind them, and the sentiment placed across the front. From there, I took it in a completely different direction for Christmas!

I paired the Holly Jolly Branches Bundle with the Whispering Woods 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper. Instead of Krista’s gardening tools, I used three evergreen trees as my focal point. I love how the Pretty Peacock trees pop against that fun watercolour-style DSP.

A few simple layers of ribbon and cardstock behind the sentiment helped me carry over more of Krista’s original layout without making the card feel too busy. And, of course, I added a few little snowflake accents for a bit of winter sparkle.

My sentiment, “wishing you a festive season,” finishes it off perfectly.

I definitely need to keep adding to my Christmas card stash, so I was happy to turn this week’s CASE challenge into another holiday card!

When you look at Krista’s card, what catches your eye first? The layout? The three focal images? The layers? That is one of my favourite things about a CASE challenge — we can all start with the same inspiration and end up somewhere completely different.

I hope you’ll play along with us this week for #GDP568. I’d love to see what inspires you!
