Hello visitors

I made this Christmas card for Oyster Stamps this week, showing one of the new stamps now available from the shop.

It is from Heartfelt Creations.

Joy to the world

I used brown card and some Christmas paper from my stash, stamped the imaged with archival black ink onto white card, and painted the manger and scroll with masking fluid.

I used distressed inks, gathered twigs and tea dye around the edges of my card, and around the scroll, then peeled off the masking fluid.

Using a Tombow blender pen, I coloured the manger and high lighted the scroll with distress ink.

I added glitter to the star

For the flowers I used Heartfelt Creations Christmas Poinsettia stamp and co coordinating sun-kissed die.

I coloured these with distress ink in Mustard Seed.

My 3D stamp paste in gold has gone completely dry! but not to be wasted lol,

I used a damp paint brush and painted over the flowers to give them a glittery shine.

The leaves are also Heartfelt, open leaf.

Coloured in Peeled paint Distress ink and 3D gold paste as above.

I glued my flowers and leaves into place and finished with some flat backed pearls.

Thanks for looking today
