Around the World with the Global Team

Good morning friends! Today we're excited to introduce a new blog feature and share some gorgeous inspiration from our Global Team!

First up is some floral inspiration from Jen using the Merry Poinsettia Bunch and the Argyle Pattern Bold Prints. We love her elegant black and gold take on the Merry Poinsettia Bunch and the white splatters are the perfect finishing touch!

Next we have this beautiful scene card from Anna using Cozy Winter. We love her use of colors to create this chilly winter scene. The glow from the fire is amazing and that kitty looks quite warm!

Next we have a whimsical holiday tag from Erica using Hug in a Mug Stamp & Cut XL and Candy Canes Bold Prints. Those toasted marshmallows look good enough to eat and we love the selective coloring on the tag to bring out the colors on the cocoa and mug!

Michelle also used Hug in a Mug Stamp & Cut XL but in a very different way!  She used the Argyle Pattern Bold Prints stamp  to give her mug a fun pattern and then paired it with Candy Cane Bold Prints for a sweet pastel pink confection.

Lisa shared another take on the Candy Cane Bold Prints stamp with some loose watercoloring. It's a great background for her highlighted stockings from the Fireplace Stamp & Cut XL. Her use of nontraditional holiday colors is really fun!

Next we have this set of masculine cards from Sandi using Christmas Robins, Christmas Holidays Stamp & Cut XL, and the Buffalo Check Bold Prints stamp. We love how she created a tartan by adding the white and black stripes to the buffalo check pattern and then used similar colors in her cute robins!

And last, but certainly not least, we have this sparkly elegant card from Ilda using Color Layering Merry Christmas and Candy Canes Bold Prints. She only used three colors for this card: white, black, and gold, but the combination of embossing powder, glitter, and colored cardstock is gorgeous!

We hope our Global Team has inspired you with their creations and we look forward to sharing more of their beautiful work with you soon! Thanks so much for visiting and have an amazing week!
