Hello hello! Merry Christmas dear friends! <\/p>\n

I\u2019m Halak and today I\u2019ll be sharing 4 Christmassy projects with you using the fantastic range of products from hndmd.in. <\/p>\n

So\u2026 let\u2019s get started!<\/p>\n

Project #1<\/b>
\n <\/b>
\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This jolly little Santa is from the CrafTangles \u2013 Santa Claus set<\/a> which has some super cute santa images and a great mix of sentiments!<\/p>\n

Steps:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Cut card base using the CrafTangles \u2013 Rich Red cardstock and added stiching to the sides using a stitched edge die.<\/li>\n
  2. Used the CrafTangles – Plaid stencil with a combo of distress oxide + dye inks. (Offset the stencil 3 times. Ink colors used \u2013 Distress Oxide Worn Lipstick, Altenew Ruby Red & Coral Berry).<\/li>\n
  3. Next, I stamped the santa image using the CraftTangles \u2013 Santa Claus stamp set onto white cardstock and sentiment (from the same set) onto CrafTangles \u2013 Old Lace cardstock.<\/li>\n
  4. Die-cut santa using a circle die and sentiment using a sentiment strip die.  <\/li>\n
  5. Colored santa, added glitter and matted onto card base with sentiment.<\/li>\n
  6. Lastly, added some white enamel dots.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Here\u2019s a close-up:

    Project #2<\/b><\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    This stamp from CrafTangles \u2013 Holly Jolly Christmas <\/a>is so very gorgeous, it\u2019s an absolute delight to color!<\/p>\n

    Steps:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1.  Stamped the images and sentiment (all from CrafTangles \u2013 Holly Jolly Christmas stamp set) onto white card base.<\/li>\n
    2. Added a bit of stenciling to one side using the CrafTangles – Plaid stencil.<\/a><\/li>\n
    3. Colored the images using Staedtler Luna colored pencils.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Check out a close-up:

       <\/b>
      \nProject  #3<\/b><\/p>\n

      \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

      I have used CrafTangles \u2013 Christmas Elements stencil<\/a>. A varied fun mix of Christmassy elements in one single stencil!<\/p>\n

      Steps:<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Cut a piece of patterned paper and stenciled using CrafTangles \u2013 Snowflakes stencil<\/a> with light blue dye ink.<\/li>\n
      2. Stenciled reindeer using archival ink and stamped sentiment from CrafTangles \u2013 Holly Jolly Christmas stamp set<\/a>.<\/li>\n
      3. Added glitter to reindeer and sentiment and matted onto CrafTangles \u2013 Navy Blue card base.<\/li>\n
      4. Adhered a thin strip of tacky tape and sprinkled mixed chunky silver glitter on it.<\/li>\n
      5. Stenciled snowflakes onto navy blue card base using snowflake stencil with white pigment ink.<\/li>\n
      6. Lastly, added some paper punched snowflake elements to the navy blue base. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Here\u2019s a sparkly close-up:
        \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

        Project #4<\/b><\/p>\n

        \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

        Steps:<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Took a piece of patterned paper and added Color Burst powders to it (Ultramarinne Blue & Pthalo Green).<\/li>\n
        2. Once that dried, I took the CrafTangles – Snowflake stencil and stenciled some pretty snowflakes using modeling paste.<\/li>\n
        3. While the paste was wet, I sprinkled some fine white glitter on it and once it dried, I trimmed and matted it onto white card base.<\/li>\n
        4. Using CrafTangles \u2013 Navy Blue cardstock, I embossed a sentiment from the Holly Jolly Christmas stamp set.<\/li>\n
        5. Die-cut the sentiment and adhered to the card.<\/li>\n
        6. Finished it off with a tiny white clay heart next to the sentiment.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          That brings me to an end of this post. I truly hope you liked my projects and that they inspired you to learn and try something new!<\/p>\n
