\nHello! <\/div>\n
\nIt’s almost time for Christmas!!<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nToday, I’ve made three Christmas cards using Craftangles liquid watercolours, stamps and stencils.<\/div>\n
\nI also have start to finish videos for the same!<\/div>\n

\nFor the first card, I used the bauble stamps from the Craftangles ‘Christmas Ornaments’ stamp set.<\/a><\/div>\n
\nI stamped them with Antique Linen distress ink and tried some no line watercolouring.<\/div>\n
\nTo create the background, I used the Christmas ornaments stencil and Tim Holtz distress inks. I darkened the edges to create a ‘glow’ in the centre. I love this technique as it creates a spotlight on the focal image. I’ve done this for all the cards.<\/div>\n
\nI used some gold mirror card stock to cut out the blows and string and finished the card with a simple sentiment from the Craftangles ‘Holly Jolly Christmas’ stamp set.<\/a><\/div>\n
