Hello crafty friends, it is about 9 more weeks till Christmas! It is so crazy how fast the time flies, especially when we have fun 🙂 And I have been having fun making Christmas cards!
Today, I am sharing a mixed media Christmas card with stamping, embossing, stenciling and watercoloring:
On a white cardstock, I added the Star Align – ARTplorations Stencil and sponged the Mustard Seed Distress Ink with make up sponge.
I stamped the framed poinsettia with Versamark ink and added Gold Embossing Powder, and heat set it with my Craft Heater. Then I colored it with Koi watercolor paint. And I cut it out and added it on a glitter paper that I cut out slightly bigger than the framed image. I added it on the card with 3D foam tape.
Then I stamped the sentiment below the image. The sentiment is from the same stamp set, Framed Christmas – Peace, Love Joy.
I added the finished panel on a A2 red card. The card is pretty simple 🙂 but I love the way we can share the peace, love and joy of Christmas even through our simple handmade cards. Keep making cards with love!
Thank You so much for visiting me today and I do hope you have a fabulous day!
