May your Christmas be filled with Joy and Laughter


Well I've been experimenting this week - way out of my depth but thought I'd give it a go ... used Distress Ink coloured Texture Paste to make my Christmas Tree...just applied the paste with a palette knife and let it dry complete...I'm amazed how flexible it is, no flakes bits falling off...  Then I die cut a border die I have with hearts in it and used them as a garland around my tree.  I used a glitter pen to draw in the tinsel threads and added some glitter baubles. It was a bit bare so I water washed in some ground and added glitter snow flakes. A metallic red layer and mini sentiment finished off the card. I'm playing along with Merry Monday challenge #167 - include hearts, and at Happy Little Stampers July Christmas challenge the theme is Tree.  Thanks for taking a peek
