Merry Christmas
Hello crafters! As promised, here is one of the samples I made for the new Christmas release. I started by laying the Blast stencil down on a piece of card with a sticky adhesive sheet added to it. I used Copper Teal Gilding flakes through the stencil using a rubit scrubit pad. I removed the stencil and used Black Onyx glitter on the remaining sticky areas. I cut the Christmas Angel 2026 out of milk card. I cut it a second time out of black gloss card. I cut away the dress portion on the black die cut and glued it to the one cut from milk coloured card. I coloured the hair and skin with pencils, then glued the dress onto it. I added some fluffy stuff and heated it to the bottom of her dress. I cut the wings out of white card and glued them to the angel then added her with mounting foam to the middle of the card. I cut the Merry Christmas sentiment from the Festive Wordie Sheets and added it with mounting foam to the card. The card was completed with white and black card mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x 7 1/2" in size. All for now. Sue x
