Last week, I wrote a post showcasing the “A Little Bit Festive” Specialty Designer Series Paper. (You can view the original post here). I truly had fun creating cards using the Designer Series Paper and die cuts the Paper Pack supplied. I showcased three cards, but there’s plenty of paper and die cuts left to inspire more. I’ll have more of them for you in a future post.
I received a call from one of my Team members, Barbara Levitz. She was so eccited to tell me how much fun she had using the Mix And Match Products, along with the “A Little Bit Festive” Specialty Designer Series Paper Pack. She made my day! I felt her excitement, and heard it in her voice. That was exactly how I felt when I decided to cut up my DSP.
She’s such a talented card maker, so I asked if she could send me some pictures of her card designs. She made a total of 60 cards with one pack of the card bases and envelopes, and one each of the new Ephemera Packs. Amazing, right?
Below is a sample of the “A Little Bit Festive Specialty Designer Series Paper”. All of the product details are at the end of this post.
I’m sharing a few of her cards today, and will share more in future posts. Enjoy the endless possibilities the Mix And Match Product Line provide.

So, I hope you enjoyed this card inspiration from Barbara. I will showcase more of Barbbara’s designs in future posts, so keep checking in.
As I mentioned earlier, I took some time to design with die cuts and designer series paper. It really was fun. It was such a nice call Barbara made to me simply to share her excitement for these products.
By the way, the price point on the entire Mix & Match line in the September-December Mini Catalog is great!
So, until next time, remember …
