Joy

Hi there,

I created this Christmas Card using one of the wonderful Charlene van der Vorst stamp sets from Elizabeth Craft Designs:

• cut out a stitched panel from watercolor cardstock using one of the Elizabeth Craft Designs Stitched Rectangles 
• stamp the mistletoe from the Elizabeth Craft Designs Oh the Joy of Christmas set with Ink on 3 Fadeout Ink  and color the image with ZIG Clean Color Real Brush Pens
• ink up the background with Distress Ink Pine Needles and a Blending Brush
• add some splatters with Finetec Mica Watercolors Inca Gold
• stamp the sentiment from the same set with Versafine Clair Nocturne - use first, second and even third generation stamping
• cover the edges of the cardbase with Versamark and heat-emboss them with WOW! Metallic Gold Rich embossing powder

Have a christmasy day.

Hugs,

You're the best Gift

Hi there,

here is another creation using the new fabulous Karten-Kunst Lucky Alphabet die set:

• use the leftover letters from this project to create something completely different
• cut out a stitched panel from confetti white cardstock and add color with Distress Oxide Ink Chipped Sapphire and a Blending Brush
• add some splatters with watered-down white acrylic paint
• cut out two hill shapes and add some blue at the top as well
• adhere the panel to a cardbase 
• glue down the letters - this time the glitter cardstock is outline with kraft cardstock

Have a christmasy day.

Hugs,

Let it snow Santa

Hi there,

as promised I am back with another Gerda Steiner Designs Christmas Project. This time I would like to show you this cute Santa Card:

• stamp the Santa from the Gerda Steiner Designs Snow Angel set with Lawn Fawn River Rock, cut it out and color it with Delta, Touch Twin Brush and Copic Markers
• create a background on a stitched panel cut from smooth white cardstock using Distress Oxide Ink Tumbled Glass and Shaded Lilac and a Blending Brush
• add water and glitter droplets for a snow effect
• stamp the Santa and the sentiment from the same stamp set onto the background panel with Versamark and heat-emboss it with white embossing glitter
• cover the cardbase with patterned paper before adhering the panel

Have a christmasy day.

Hugs,

Christmas Mail Snowflake
