Christmas Skies card using Alcohol Ink background

 Hello everyone, I hope this finds you well and enjoying the holiday season.  I have a Christmas card to share today, not too difficult to make at the last minute, if you need a few more.


I started with an alcohol ink background on Yupo paper.  It doesn’t show in the photo but it is a bit shimmery. I stamped right over top with Archival ink with the gorgeous tree background stamp.  

I then heat embossed the sentiment on some vellum. This is a brushstroke style script and I like the way it looks heat embossed.  

I added some tiny punched snowflakes to finish off my card.  I applied this with some clear glitter glue.  Again these didn’t show up well on the photos, but I found it to be a nice way to glue small things, as the extra glitter on a Christmas cards just adds something to the whole thing!

You can find these stamps in the I Brake for Stamps store.

Quick Cards with Gelli Plate backgrounds and a Bird House Stamp

 Hello from design team member, Heidi.  We are at the point where if you still have Christmas cards to make, you probably need to make multiples quickly.  I have an idea for you using a most beautiful Christmas stamp.  


I have used this stamp in the past and colored it.  It is not hard to color, but that is definitely more time consuming.  This time I picked out some backgrounds I had already made from my stash (these seem to have been make with my gelli plate) and stamped this stamp in black right over top.  

While I was stamping, I also stamped the image on white cardstock.  I then just colored a couple of the leaves and berries, and cut out the banner to make the sentiment stand out more. I think they all turned out pretty!

You can find this stamp at the I Brake for Stamps store.

Merry Christmas Bird Houses
