It’s Sunday, and time to play with The Paper Players. This week we are hosting a sketch challenge. This sketch seemed perfect for showcasing the Bright and Beautiful stamp set from the new Holiday Catalog. It is available to order August 28th. Enjoy the peek at this new set!
The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips
This finished card measures 5-1/2″ wide by 4-1/4″ long.
- Lovin’ the layers! Embossed with gold and with white, the medium and small Star images from Bright and Beautiful make a statement when layered atop each other. The coordinating Star Framelits make cutting them out a snap!
- Lovin’ Under the Tree! Under the Tree Specialty Designer Series Paper contains cardstock-weight kraft sheets that are color printed on one side while white printed patterns are on the other side. This particular pattern looks gorgeous when paired with Brushed Gold cardstock.
- Lovin’ the banners! Although it’s not specifically holiday paper, the metallic patterns in the Gold Soiree Specialty Designer Series Paper collection adds a festive touch to this car
I am so in love with this year’s Holiday Catalog! My son, Brady, who has been my right-hand-man this July, thinks this set is going to be one of the holiday hits this year. What do you think? Although this card is lovely and layered, I can’t wait to ink it up and create some clean and simple beauties! As always, if you have any questions about the cards I create or the techniques I use, I am only an email away! Until next time…
Just so lovely Ann and very timely with the Big shot Star bundle now available I think you have convinced me to get this one!
Beautiful, Ann. I really wasn’t sure about this set when I saw the new catalog, but you really showcased how beautiful it can be. I love the mixture of different textures and papers for the banner, too. the little red pearl in the middle of the last star is the perfect finishing touch.

Ann, this card is beyond gorgeous! I love Cherry Cobbler and mixed with the gold is amazing! I am all about layers, so this card is a winner! The embossing and stacked stars are beautiful! XX
What a stunning card!!! I got my Holiday catty today – even though I looked at it on-line and have a huge Want List, it is still better to have it in our hands…and I’ve already starred this stamp set….thank you for sharing your fabulous creativity – guessing a lot of people will want to CASE you!
That loud noise you heard was me squealing with delight when I saw this card!! GORGEOUS!! XOXO
Hands down this is my favorite set from the holiday catalog! You’ve shown it beautifully in all it’s metallic and embossed glory. Wonderful card, Ann!!
Delicious, Dahling.
Gorgeous, luscious, and soooooo Christmas-y! (And I think Brady’s assessment is spot-on!)
Such an elegant card Ann, so richly colored with gold and red. The design with all the star cut layers is stunning!
Lovely card, Ann….so elegant and beautiful with all the gold accents! Great way to use that new set!
So breathtakingly beautiful, Ann!
Love this Ann, a gorgeous standout card for sure!!
Very attractive card for the holidays! Brady just may be right. 🙂
This card is absolutely gorgeous Ann and a great take on your sketch! I love the gold and red together and the embossed stars look so luxurious. I think Brady could be right – this set could be a hit this year, although I have to say there is big competition – this year’s holiday catalogue is one of the best I’ve seen.
Cherry Cobbler and Brushed Gold are gorgeous together! Love the layers and embossing.
I think Brady may be right about the stars.
Thanks for the sharing new sets this week.
