Copper Celebrate Card

I love metal.

So, of course I fell in love with the new DCWV Classy Copper Stack!

This paper stack has just the right amount of copper pages, prints and fun tag cut outs, you don't really need any other paper to craft a darling card!

I made this birthday card with just a few of the amazing pages from this stack, and for a bit of color I just added some paint to the floral metallic page and used as the card base.

Inside I cut out a tag and some fun copper metal shapes.

DCWV - Metallic Gold Tree - Cork Advent Calendar

Everyone loves to countdown to Christmas.

Make it easy on yourself, and fun for everyone with an Advent Calendar.

I made this fun little tree from a few cuts of wood, metallic gold spray paint and a bunch of nails.

For the numbers I used the DCWV Natural Cork Stack, a circle punch and some white paint. Each circle is hand painted with a number, and then hole punched at the top. They are simply hung off of nails.

I crafted a bunch of cute little gifts to sit under my tree, but you can put real gifts if you'd like! These darling DCWV Boxes all come in one nifty package. A large variety of sizes for all of your little gifts. And we all know the best gifts come in the smallest packages!!

I wrapped them with some fun DCWV papers.

Another fun wrapping idea is to use a standard circle hole punch and DCWV Metallic Cardstock. Punch a bunch of circles and randomly stick them on the box with GlueDots! Perfect polka dots!

Deer Silhouette Home Decor

Have you wanted to create a home decor project, that seems a bit larger scale than normal? And you just can't find the right supplies to make it, without piecing together paper, and having seams in your project?

Well DCWV has heard your request and created larger stacks.

For my latest project I used the DCWV Project Basics: 24"x36" Silver Glitzy Glitter Sheet. Yes, that is 3 feet of amazing silver glitter!!

I have been in love with the 'deer silhouette' for a while now, but thought now is the perfect time to custom make some decor of my own. Now that I have larger scale paper to work with. Of course, I used some old pallet wood. I just love the look of it after staining it. I don't even sand it down or clean it up. This is raw, dirty, used pallet wood!!

In the DCWV DIY Project Wreath Stack, there are cardboard corrugate sheets. I used one of these as the backing for the deer. Just to give it a little more stability.

I found an image of the deer silhouette online, and printed it out. Traced it on to the corrugate, cut it out and sprayed it metallic silver.

I then traced it onto the DCWV Silver Sheet and cut that out.

I secured them together, and then to the wood.

The Deer Silhouette Decor fits perfectly into my new Winter Season home decor theme. It accents my handmade metallic silver Christmas Trees and my recent Faux Tin SNOW Blocks project, perfectly!
