Carta Bella Warm & Cozy Collection

Hello, Carta Bella Paper fans!
I'm up on the Carta Bella Blog today with a two greeting cards using the fabulous Warm & Cozy Collection!

In the Stillness Card


The Carta Bella Warm & Cozy Collection is so fun...and perfect for the men in your life!  Even though I can't wait for spring, I'm still embracing the winter days...this fun collection makes it a little easier to remember the things we love about winter!  The Warm & Cozy patterns remind me of my favorite wool sweater!

Designer Tip:  Masculine-themed 

Masculine-themed cards can still be embellished and maintain their manly appeal!  Instead of a twine bow, staple on a piece of loose twine or add a wooden clip.  Adding elements like this takes your project to the next level, but keeps your man happy, too:)




Build a Snowman Card



Here is the supply list that I used to create the Warm & Cozy greeting cards!

Paper Trimmer
Scoring Tool
Tape Adhesive
Foam Adhesive
Liquid Glue
Wooden Clip

Directions:
1.  Cut apart Carta Bella Kraft Vellum Card Stock to 4.25" by 11" and score at at 5", fold and score to create the card base.

2.  Cut Warm & Cozy paper background panel to 4" by 5.25" and adhere.  Cut apart the 3" x 4" journal cards in the collection and adhere as a coordinating panels over the background panel.

3.  Choose stickers from the Warm & Cozy Collection to create a sentiment banners and image elements on each card, adhering with foam adhesive.

4.  To embellish, add loose twine with a stapler and a wooden clip for extra interest to your masculine-themed cards.




When creating with Carta Bella collections, it is easy and fun to whip up handmade cards and gifts!  I hope you are inspired to create something for the men in your life today using your Carta Bella collections!
