Welcome to InKing Royalty’s December Blog Hop! During this year’s blog hops, we are having fun with our stamping favorites – our favorite themes for seasonal cards and projects.
This month’s projects are all about party fun – festive gatherings like New Year’s, birthdays and other fun times. How fun! We are excited to share our creations with you today! After you read my post, I hope you’ll hop over to the next person on the list at the base of this post.
Today I am excited to share a super simple Happy New Year card using the Gold/Rose Gold Specialty Paper. This paper pack is perfect for that added sparkle on all your holiday cards.
I began with a Very Vanilla card base and keeping with my them of simple but elegant, added an embossed layer of trees (Evergreen Forest folder) in Very Vanilla CS.
I then used the Gold/Rose Gold Specialty paper and cut Happy New Year with the Word Wishes Dies (pg. 166 AC). I used a small hole punch to create the added bling from the remains of my cut outs. This paper is so gorgeous I just did not want to waste any of it.
For the inside of my card I stamped the greeting from Heartfelt Wishes using Cinnamon Cider Ink and added some more homemade bling!
I do wish Stampin’ Up! had a Gold ink pad, as the Cinnamon Cider does not match perfectly, but it is close. I could have heat embossed the greeting with VersaMark ink and our Gold Embossing powder, but then it would not be a super simple card. LOL
I hope you enjoyed today’s post and will hop along to our next stop at Avery’s Owlery with Lynn Kolcun. There’s lots of inspiration to be found in this group – and you don’t want to miss it!

Until next time, be blessed, Renae
