Christmas Mail

Hi there,

I created this Christmas Card for Anjas Basteltraum using the Lebkuchenbäckerei and Kleine Weihnachtspost stamp sets:

  • cut out four Time for Tea Designs Slimline Postage Stamps from white and red cardstock
  • stamp some images from the Anjas Basteltraum Lebkuchenbäckerei set and the sentiment from the Anjas Basteltraum Kleine Weihnachtspost set with Gina K. Designs Obsidian
  • color the images with Spectrum Noir Triblend Markers, add extra shading with Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils and highlights with a white gel pen
  • ink up the edges of the postage stamps with Versamark and heat-emboss them with WOW! Metallic Gold Rich Super Fine embossing powder
  • create a background using green cardstock, the Spellbinders Argyle Plaid embossing folder, Versamark and that same golden embossing powder
  • assemble the card and add little dots with a golden gel pen

I hope you got inspired.

Hugs,

Merry & Bright

Hi there,

I created this Classic Christmas Card for the Karten-Kunst Blog:

  • create a background using dark green cardstock, an embossing folder and watered-down white gouache
  • cut out the sentiment from DIY striped cardstock using the Karten-Kunst Joy Alphabet and the Karten-Kunst Joy Alphabet Add-On die sets
  • add some Karten-Kunst Mini Snowflakes 2 cut from white glitter paper as final embellishments

Have a wonderful day.

Hugs,
