\nHello!!<\/div>\n
\nI have made some fun Christmas cards for you today, <\/div>\n
\nusing Craftangles stencils, glimmer pastes and art sprays!<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nFor the first card, I used the Craftangles ‘Floral Mesh’ stencil <\/a>with Tim Holtz distress inks to create a backgroud. <\/div>\n
\nI die cut this panel using Simon Says Stamp stitched rectangle dies. <\/div>\n
\nI then added a stamped and fussy cut holly image and a sentiment (from Hero Arts).<\/div>\n
\nI then layered it with another die cut panel (in red) on a black card base from Craftangles.<\/div>\n
\nI finished the card with some clear sequins from Craftangles.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nFor the second card, I used the Craftangles snowflakes stencil<\/a> <\/div>\n
\nand the Craftangles Fairy Dust glimmer paste<\/a> to create a background. <\/div>\n
\nI then added a die cut panel in white in the foreground and a die cut lamp, wreath and bow.<\/div>\n
\nI added a sentiment from Hero arts and finished the card by adhering it to a red card base from Craftangles.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nFor the next card, I started by smooshing some Tim Holtz mowed lawn distress ink onto a smooth white card base. <\/div>\n
\nOnce dry, I used the Craftangles Christmas tree stencil along with the Craftangles ‘Fairy dust’ glimmer paste <\/a>to create the background.<\/div>\n
\nI then adhered a die cut white panel for the foreground and a die cut and distressed (with Tim Holtz tea die distress oxide) deer. <\/div>\n
\nI then stamped the sentiment from Hero Arts and adhered this panel to a kraft card base to finish the card.<\/div>\n
\nOh, and I also added a die cut bow to the deer for a splash of colour.<\/div>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\nFor my last card, I created a background using the Craftangles ‘Dots’ stencil<\/a> and Craftangles <\/a><\/div>\n
\nArt sprays.<\/a> Once dry, I used the Craftangles ‘Rays’ stencil<\/a> and Craftangles gold glimmer paste<\/a> to create a unique background.<\/div>\n
\nI then added a die cut white deer layered with a die cut piece of fun foam in order to give it dimension.<\/div>\n
\nI added a sentiment (hero arts) and a little red resin heart for colour and interest.<\/div>\n
\nI adhered the panel to a white textured square card base to finish the card.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nI hope you enjoyed these cards as much as I enjoyed making them!<\/div>\n
\nAll the products used have been linked to the HNMD site so do have a look.<\/div>\n

\nThanks so much for stopping by! <\/div>\n
\nHave a great day!<\/div>\n
