 Hi everyone,

Today I have 2 cards to share using a bunch of different products and some watercolour ink smooshing.

I started by die cutting the words in green and red felt.

To each of the word backgrounds I used a piece of Idea-ology Christmas wallpaper and applied some Distress Sparkle paste over top.

I ink smooshed the backgrounds onto a piece of watercolour card stock. When dry I sprayed with a bit of Distress spray stain.

When dry I added a stencil to each of the backgrounds and applied Distress texture paste,

Before adding the paste I embossed the panel  with a stitched rectangle die piece.

Also before the stencil and paste I stamped some words in the same colour of Distress inks on to each panel.

I added glossy accents to each of the stars and berries and sprinkled with a bit of Distress Clear Rock Candy glitter.

Well that’s it for my cards today and thanks so much for stopping by🙏🏻

 Hi everyone,

Well Gladys arrived yesterday and I couldn’t wait to play and create.

I started by creating my background piece with Distress reinkers and water using a smooshing technique. I then die cut the piece with a scalloped rectangle die.

For an added touch I stitched the edges with black thread first with a straight stitch and then with a zig zag stitch. 

I purposely didn’t stitch a straight line as I didn’t want it to look perfect.

I assembled Gladys using various colours of pink card stock and added glossy accents to the beak and eyes.

I used a distressing tool to distress the edges of the dark green card stock piece.

The letters were done with an embossing folder and black card stock and inked with silver metallic rub on.

Well that’s it for my card and thanks so much for stopping by 🙏🏻
