Color Me Monday: A Cozy Winter Party

If you’re feeling a little “blah” this winter, then here’s a color combination sure to transform the drab days into a real party!  Today’s color combination includes Pear, Topiary, Baby Pink and Smoothie and features everything you need for a great winter gathering. In addition to the great colors, the “All Decked Out” stamp set (D1308) is really the star of the show—I call it the “build-a-snowman set,” and it’s an adorable, easy way to create all things snowy.

First up, a fun invitation to a “Happy Snow Days” party, complemented by placemats made from cardstock and strips of your favorite background and texture paper (I pulled leftover B&T paper from Splendor, Cherry-O, and Olivia paper packs for mine). To dress up the placemats, each attendee gets a name card made from our clear cards and snowmen from the All Decked Out set. You can see mine have banners for Mason and Belle—and I think they’ll love keeping their card long after our winter party is over.

Everything gets pulled together with Dimensional Elements snowflakes used as napkin rings and a great party banner—I absolutely love the twist of springy colors used on a banner that says “Winter;” how great is that? To make everything just a little more festive, you’ll note that everything shimmers and sparkles—that’s because I’ve used a generous amount of Prisma glitter, Twinkle brads, Sparkles and even glitter rub-ons everywhere possible. No drab winter day here!
