Starting<br \/>\noff, I made three different cards with Christmas release <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hndmd.com\/craft-supplies\/stamps?bfilter=m0:149;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">stamps <\/a>&amp; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hndmd.com\/craft-supplies\/stencils?bfilter=m0:149;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">stencils<\/a>from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hndmd.com\/brand-craftangles\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Craftangles <\/a>and my most favourite ones is this Christmas bauble card.<\/span><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.craftadda.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Card3_3.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"667\" data-original-width=\"1000\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/www.craftadda.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Card3_3.jpg\" width=\"640\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\">\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\">\n<span lang=\"EN-IN\"><\/span><\/div>\n<p><a name='more'><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\">\n<span lang=\"EN-IN\"><\/span><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\">\n<span lang=\"EN-IN\"><\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/div>\n<div align=\"center\" class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<b style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;\"><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-IN\">CARD 1<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\">\n<span lang=\"EN-IN\">The background card panel is stamped with<br \/>\naltenew crip dye ink in shade soft lilac with \u201cflourishes\u201d hero arts background<br \/>\nstamp and is mounted on white card base with glitter washi tape border. The<br \/>\nbaubles stamps are from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hndmd.com\/craft-supplies\/stamps\/craftangles-photopolymer-stamps-christmas-ornaments-ctps43\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Craftangles set \u2013 Christmas Ornaments<\/a> and I got the 3D<br \/>\neffect by layered stamping with different shades. I applied altenew crisp dye<br \/>\nin shade lavender fields around the perimeter of the bauble only and stamped it<br \/>\nfirst. I stamped over it the second time after applying altenew ink soft lilac<br \/>\nall over the stamp area. For a defined border, but not too bold, I stamped the<br \/>\nbauble border stamp with hero arts soft granite ink. The Craftangles Christmas<br \/>\nOrnaments stampset comes with a variety of sentiments that can be accommodated<br \/>\nin the bauble and I chose two different ones in both my cards and they were<br \/>\nheat embossed with super fine gold embossing powder from ranger. The baubles<br \/>\nwere fussy cut and adhered with double sided foam tapes. The tiny cute bows are<br \/>\nhandmade from 1cm wide organza ribbons and half pearl embellishments.<span style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\">\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.craftadda.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Card3_1.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"667\" data-original-width=\"1000\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/www.craftadda.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Card3_1.jpg\" width=\"640\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/a><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.craftadda.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Card3_2.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"667\" data-original-width=\"1000\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/www.craftadda.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Card3_2.jpg\" width=\"640\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/a><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.craftadda.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Card3_3-1.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"667\" data-original-width=\"1000\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/www.craftadda.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Card3_3-1.jpg\" width=\"640\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\">\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\">\n<span lang=\"EN-IN\"><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\">\n<span lang=\"EN-IN\"><\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/div>\n<div align=\"center\" class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<b style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;\"><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-IN\">CARD 2<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\">\n<span lang=\"EN-IN\">Next card is a very pretty snowflakes card<br \/>\nthat has lot of depth and details. I have used the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hndmd.com\/craft-supplies\/stencils\/craftangles-6x6-stencil-snowflakes-ctcs50\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">snowflakes stencils from Craftangles<\/a><br \/>\nto create this background with peacock feather distress ink. The idea is to<br \/>\ncreate a depth in the snowflakes scene by brushing lighter and darker shades of<br \/>\ndistress inks with the stencil in varied positions. I started with small amount<br \/>\nof ink to create lighter patterns first, changed the stencil position and then<br \/>\ncreated darker\/bolder patterns. I also used the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hndmd.com\/craft-supplies\/stamps\/craftangles-photopolymer-stamps-merry-christmas-ctps42\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">tiny snowflakes stamps fromCraftangles Merry Christmas<\/a> to heat emboss with ranger snowflakes tinsel<br \/>\nembossing powder for an added interest here and there. This background was then<br \/>\ncut out into three panels to make three different cards on blue colored<br \/>\ncardbase. The sentiments are from MFT handlettered holiday stamp set and heat<br \/>\nset using white embossing powder from ranger.<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\">\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.craftadda.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Card2_1.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"667\" data-original-width=\"1000\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/www.craftadda.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Card2_1.jpg\" width=\"640\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/a><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.craftadda.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Card2_2.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"667\" data-original-width=\"1000\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/www.craftadda.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Card2_2.jpg\" width=\"640\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/a><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.craftadda.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Card2_3.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"667\" data-original-width=\"1000\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/www.craftadda.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Card2_3.jpg\" width=\"640\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/a><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.craftadda.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Card2_4.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"1500\" data-original-width=\"1000\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/www.craftadda.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Card2_4.jpg\" width=\"426\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\">\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\">\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\">\n<span lang=\"EN-IN\"><\/span><\/div>\n<div align=\"center\" class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<b style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;\"><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-IN\">CARD 3<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\">\n<span lang=\"EN-IN\">The last set of cards is a really fun and<br \/>\njolly card with a lot of interest lines.

A<br \/>\ncircular white cardstock cutout was placed at the center which was covered with<br \/>\na stitched circle frame mounted with double sided foam tape.
