Tis the Season - Card #4

Here is my last card for Altenew's Card Class - Tis the Season. This card features die cut windows with some ink blending to bring the images to life!

Since I used Distress Oxide inks, I sprinkled some water over the images to bring out that oxide effect!

Thanks for visiting! I adore Altenew's classes and they have a last minute holiday card class coming up! 

Ingredients: Altenew Festive Silhouettes 

Tis the Season - Card #3

Welcome back for another card for Altenew's Card Class - Tis the Season. Today's card is about metallic elements on your card - the holidays are all about the sparkle and shine!

It is hard to see from the pic, but the tree is popped up on foam tape with a 2nd tree in gold behind it to create some hidden shine. The word "christmas" was watercolored with some watered down gold paint I had and finally some splatters of gold are the final touch.

Thanks for visiting!

Ingredients: Altenew Festive Silhouettes, Halftone Holidays 

Tis the Season - Card #2

Back with another card for Altenew's Card Class Tis the Season. This card uses (mostly) non-Christmas/holiday products to create a holiday card. I rarely do this but loved stretching my creativity!  Here's my card:

Love this graphic card! 

Thanks for visiting!

Ingredients: Altenew Halftone (stencil), Festive Silhouettes (die), Bold Alphabet (dies); PTI Peaceful Pinecones 

Tis the Season - Card #1

I've started my Christmas cards - YAY - thanks to Altenew's card class Tis the Season. My first card is my take on the Rustic Holiday style (one of my favs). 

I finally got my hands on some of that wood paper (Altenew sells it) and love it! I love deer images - they are perfect for cards for guys! The antlers of the deer are stamped on gold to add some holiday sparkle!

Thanks for visiting! More cards to come.

Ingredients: Altenew Festive Silhouettes, Halftone Holidays; PTI Mix and Mat: Postal (die); misc holly from stash
