It’s Wednesday and time for another challenge over at Frilly and Funkie Challenge Blog!
This challenge is hosted by Pamellia (My Little Craft Things), who has chosen the theme WHAT A ‘MESH’ …PAMELLIA says, “I would like you to create a vintage or shabby chic project using any type of mesh (crinoline, cheesecloth, tulle, burlap, canvas etc).”
This holiday card is so quick and easy to make. I used papers from the Tim Holtz tidings paper stash, as well as new Tim Holtz Sizzix holiday release dies.
Die cut a cameo frame with the movers and shapers oval insert from distress watercolor cardstock. Emboss with a texture fades folder and blend in vintage photo, walnut stain and ground espresso distress ink.
For the center of the frame I die cut a star from the new Tim Holtz Sizzix thinlits dimensional star set from metallic kraft core cardstock. I sanded over the top with a sanding grip and spritzed with gathered twig distress marker.
Using the same technique as with the cameo frame, I die cut “Believe” with the new Tim Holtz Sizzix thinlits holiday words thin set, underlaid with metallic kraft core cardstock and mounted over burlap.
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you will find time to join in the challenge and pop over to Frilly and Funkie challenge blog to see the rest of the DT’s projects. All the products I used are available from The Funkie Junkie Boutique.

It’s beautiful Zoe!! I definitely need to buy one. Lol!!
I love the elegant simplicity of this card! It’s such a great design for mass production.
As Kathy has already said, this is so elegant – and the design is wonderful. You make me wish I had bought the star thinlits now…. I need to put that right! x
Your star is beautiful Zoe, and the strip of burlap is a perfect accent piece. Lovely holiday card! 🙂
Gorgeous card Zoe! Love the star!
Striking star! Love the rustic traditional colors and design. Beautiful card.
Hi Zoe!!
Wow! I adore your frame card. That star is AMAZING! What a perfect focal point for your beautiful creation. The Tim Holtz papers are gorgeous and the inking really makes the frame pop off the page. Also, the burlap framing of your sentiment adds a lovely rustic appeal. I hope all is well with you. It seems like forever since I’ve been online.
Hugs,
Nancy
