Christmas Card by Debs

Hi  All

Here is a Christmas Card I made using a Gelli print, Jewelled Snowflake and Ornaments stamp plate and the Christmas Greeting #1 plate.

First I stamped and embossed the lightbulb onto plain white card and then stamped and embossed a large snowflake using Versamark Ink and Wow Silver Embossing Powder 

Then I stamped and embossed the banner from the Borders #1 plate and the Swirl Background Open stamp.

I then cut all three elements out.

I found some silver twine and made some bows and stuck these to the lightbulbs.

I made a Gelli print using Brushed Pewter Distress Paint with a little bit of Broken China and did three or four pulls from the Gelli Plate.  Once they were dry I stamped the same large snowflake with White Linen Dylusions paint over the whole of one of the sheets in a random manner, ensuring that the snowflakes weren't too dominant i wanted a subtle effect so that the one in the lightbulb would stand out.

Apologies for the lack of photos at this point - Brain was obviously not in gear 

I cut the card down to a DL size and also trimmed the gelli print and then mounted it onto a piece of card, distressed the edges and mounted onto the card with 3D tape, adding the banner before sticking down.

I Added one lightbulb directly to the paper and the other one with 3D tape overlapping slightly.

Thanks for Stopping By

A Heart full Of Swirls By Dee

Hi everyone hope you are all well and enjoying your summer.

In keeping with our challenge this month I have a

Tag for you today.

I was having a play with the New Artistic Stamper stamps, I had stamped 

the decay swirl in blue and painted over with sage 

fresco finish paint. 

Next I stamped the swirl stamp in frayed burlap distress ink

and clear embossed.

I coloured a piece of card with delusion sprays and 

then applied Finnabair's 3D gel through the 

swirl mask.

It was swiped with silver gilding wax I ripped pieces

of and attached them onto the tag.

I cut the heart out of black foam board I clear embossed the

swirl stamp onto the foam board ad painted it in green.

next I swiped silver to make it stand out.

I wrapped metal wire around the heart and cut out some of the dylusion 

coloured card and attached that to the heart to break it up.

Next I wrapped ribbon around the tag and attached the

silver beads to the tag.

Well that's it for today I hope you have enjoyed this post

please let me know what you think.

Cheers Dee x
