Hello friends! I’m back with another Christmas card. I’m pretty sure that I am way behind schedule at this stage, but the fun I am having creating holiday cards in the correct season, makes up for the late nights and sheer panic that await me… at some point I must start my Christmas shopping! *insert hysterical laughter*
As soon as Tim Holtz announced his holiday dies, the ice flake bigz die went to the top of my MUST HAVE list.
Glue metallic kraft stock to distress mixed media heavystock and die cut using the ice flake bigz die.
Using the sanding grip, sand parts of the ice flake and blend in vintage photo distress ink. I love that the metallic kraft stock can be so grungy with a little light sanding.
Attach to the card at the center of the ice flake with distress collage medium and add an idea-ology gumdrop coloured with mushroom alcohol ink.
Using Tim Holtz stamps, stamp the advert from music and advert set (cms358) onto heavystock using archival ink. Drag through a wash of frayed burlap, iced spruce and pumice stone distress spray. Use an ornate trims stamp (cms326) to create a border for the the greeting, stamped from the yuletide set (cms356).
Layer onto more metallic kraft stock and classic kraft stock, lightly sand and blend in vintage photo distress ink.
Another card to add to my stack.
