I cannot give you a direct to that blog because as I write this post the first Christmas Card blog has not been posted yet. I will have two cards posted on my assigned days -- but I wanted to challenge myself to create as many different Christmas cards using Technique Junkie Stamps as I could on my own blog. So this is my first day! I have two similar cards for you today.
Both of these cards use the same technique -- but with two different stamps. So I wanted to post them on the same day. I used the Smooch Painted Texture Tutorial from December 2011 Technique Junkie newsletter using a Tim Holtz embossing folder. Then I added the Technique Junkie Stamps beautiful ornament http://techniquejunkies.com/ornament-1/ stamped on Star Dream card stock and embossed with detail gold embossing powder. I fussy cut around the ornament, added a small bow, and popped it up using pop dots. I added some sparkly snow to the branches on both cards.
This next card used the Technique Junkie Stamps Merry Christmas stamp http://techniquejunkies.com/merry-christmas/ stamped vellum. The greenery was colored in with Copic markers, and the letters with a white gel pen. Then I added a few red rhinestones for berries here and there.
Christmas is coming and are you ready? In the move to my new stamp I "found" about 75 Christmas cards already done. So after this year I feel fairly ready in that area of my life.
Have a wonderful inky day!
