Hello friends. Welcome back for day 4 of my week of Christmas makes that I’m sharing with you. I wasn’t kidding about loving the new Cozy Christmas stamp set by Tim Holtz. You can see the stamp launch and other inspiration makes over on Tim’s Blog.
I do love that you can use these stamps in parts and pieces. I decided to make a mini card to go with an envelope I had created that was the wrong size for my curio box cards (which I will be sharing tomorrow).
I used distress reinkers to watercolor onto distress watercolor cardstock. I stamped the cozy christmas stamp in black soot distress archival ink. I love this ink as it’s permanent when dry and perfect for watercoloring over.
I created this envelope using my mini envelope punch board. I added frayed burlap distress oxide spray, some of the seasonal mica and then dried with my heat tool. I added crackle texture paste through the hocus pocus stencil and once dry, added vintage collage medium through the stencil onto the stars.
I liked the envelope so I decided to make a tiny card to fit. That’s the great thing about having the cardstock and these tools, you can customize anything. I used the envelope as a template to cut an envelope liner using some leftover idea-ology paper I had. How fancy right?!
Seriously?! How cute is that snowman with his pot for a hat? I love him.
Thanks for stopping by
