Mid Century Modern Christmas

This fortnight at Jingle Belles we've got a fabulous photo inspiration based on this beautiful
Mid Century Modern Holiday Decor photo from Edward George
. You don't necessarily have to embody the Mid/Mod vibe... but you can if you'd like to. Basically, you can take inspiration from ANY aspect(s) of the photo you like: the fun little Santas; the unique patterns and colors on the Christmas trees; the wealth of woodgrain; even the reindeer collection or the gold star on the top of the Christmas tree. Just make sure you tell us how you were inspired in your post.


Here's my card:


The first thing I noticed in the photo was alllllllllll of that beautiful blonde wood. The walls, the mantel, even the small glimpses of the floor and ceiling we can see at the edges of the picture are covered in it. And since one of the "niche" collections inside my massive papercrafting stash happens to be woodgrain papers, I was pretty sure I could find one (or as it turned out three) woodgrain papers that would/WOOD work! I also stumbled upon some *ancient* Daisy D's retro-themed holiday paper which I cut into little shapes with my Hero Arts Fancy Ornament Infinity Dies, surrounded by shimmering stars and a (woodgrain, of course!) sentiment.

JB2613: Mid Century Modern Christmas runs until the evening of Wednesday, February 11th.
