As always, the Tim Holtz featured challenges give me nightmares!  I ALWAYS struggle with the grungy style so I do tend to shy away from it.  My project manages to feature a fun TH stencil AND remains clean and simple (and super glittery of course!  I die cut a couple of tags from the Simon Says Stamp Large Tags dies and covered it with a layer of a gorgeous glitter embossing paste using the Holiday Knit TH stencil.  This is such a great (and quick) effect and I think I’ll be using it LOADS for the last few Christmas cards I need to make (like, 50!!!).  For the centre of the tag I used the Circle Sentiments from Simon Says Stamp and embossed it in silver before die cutting it with the Stitched Circle Dies (also from Simon)!  For a last touch of sparkle I used a little rhinestone on the centre of the snowflake.

I thought whilst I had all my stuff out I’d create a matching card to go with the gift tag – makes everything look quite classy I think!!!

I have a really fun card this week thanks to this fab image from Art Impressions.  After stamping and colouring him in with Copics (with gold sharpie on the star garland) I partially die cut the card and stamped the sentiment on the bottom.  The strip of stripy paper adds just the right touch of extra Christmasseyness!!!

ANYTHING GOES

It’s Anything Goes week again and this week I’ve been at it again with the MISTI and some FABULOUS multi step stamps from Altenew.  I love this stamp but I don’t think I’d use it if I didn’t have the MISTI – it takes ALL the effort out of it!  I didn’t have the dies when I created this card (I do now) so after stamping them in some yummy Simon inks I fussy cut them and mounted them on my card panel.  The splattering was done by splodging some Spiced Marmalade distress ink onto an acrylic block, spraying it with a Perfect Pearls solution and then flicking it on to the card with a paintbrush.
