Hello everyone… I hope you all have a great start of this week. I have another mixed media Christmas card to share with you all today.

On my mixed media Christmas card, I used the Christmas Baubles #1 Layering Dies, Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies, Homespun Christmas Stamp Set, Holly Background ARTplorations Stencil. And here’s what inspiration me to create for the CUTplorations December Challenge.

I used the watercolor ghosting technique with Holly Background ARTplorations Stencil to create the background. After that, I added some white paint splatters and dried it with craft heater. After that cut it with the medium size of the Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies.

I cut out the ornament Christmas Baubles #1 Layering Dies using red cardstock and gold metallic cardstock. I stacked them together with dries-clear adhesive. I tied some of the baker’s twine on the ornament and added it on the card panel with 3D foam tape. I secured the twine behind the panel with tape, and I added the panel on the card with dries-clear adhesive permanent glue.

I stamped the sentiment from Homespun Christmas Stamp Set with VersaFine Clair Glamorous Ink Pad.

I drew lines to make the frame using Gold UniBall Gel Pen.

That’s my card for this challenge. I hope you all like it. And… it is your turn. When you create a project for this CUTplorations December Challenge and using one of STAMPlorations products on it, you also can link it up at their Never-Ending Anything Goes Challenge.

Hello everyone… It is the first Sunday of December and that means Advent Season has started. I hope you all have a blessed Advent journey this year.

I have a mixed media Christmas card to share with you all that I created with stencils and phrase word set from STAMPlorations.

On this mixed media Christmas card, I used: Christmas Tree 1 ARTplorations Stencil, Christmas Blessings Phrase Die, Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Die.

I added some watercolor wash on a piece of watercolor paper, and then I added some of the Gold Screen Paint randomly on the paper with finger.

I mixed the Pine Needles Distress Crayon and some Shimmer Creative Medium, and then I added it on the card with the Christmas Tree 1 ARTplorations Stencil using palette knife.

Once the stenciled background dried, I added some white paint splatters on it.

I dried the panel with craft heater and cut it with the largest size of the Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Die. I added it on the white card with dries-clear adhesive glue.

I cut out the Christmas Blessings Phrase Die with red cardstock and then I added it on the card with the dries-clear adhesive glue.

Hello December… Hello Winter… It is the time of the year when I love the snow but I am not a fan of the cold days. But I am thankful for Winter!

Today, they have a new mood board over Joy Clair Blog for the December Anything Goes Challenge. They are beautiful inspirations to use to make pretty projects for this season. I made a one-layer Winter themed card inspired by the colors, snow, and sweatshirt.

I use the new Snowy Greetings Stamp Set using heat-embossing resist technique with heat embossing powder and watercolor paints. I like the adorable snowmen, snowballs, and snowflakes from this stamp set.

I hope you all have time to play along with Joy Clair December Anything Goes Challenge and share with us your projects.
