Believe in the Magic

Hello everyone,

I have a Christmas card today that I never got a chance to share. 

I am getting into this galaxy background thing and it's pretty amazing.  When you start it looks like a serious hot mess but once you get the water spots and ink splatter on it, it transforms to something spectacular.  


After creating the background I went on to die cutting the sentiment with some gold card stock dividers I kept from an old planner and a piece of vellum from Michaels.  I cut out the banner out of a piece of black card stock from my stash and added it to the card base as well as the sentiment. 



Head over to my YouTube channel to see how a created this card.




Thanks for stopping by, see you again soon!

So Suzy Stamp GD - Merry Christmas

Hello everyone,

I'm back again with another Christmas card for you and for my Holiday Card Series.  I decided to use the new to me Colour Burst in Alizarin Crimson which is a gorgeous Christmas red. 




I added the Colour Burst to the paper and you DON'T need a lot.  When you add it to the paper, it doesn't even seam like there is anything there but look at the stages it goes through below when you add the water.  



After the panel as completely dry I die cut it out with a stitched rectangle.  I also sent the panel through my die cutting machine a few more times to help flatten it out. 


I took the watercoloured panel and using my mini MISTI I stamped the Merry Christmas sentiment with Versamark ink (which is a clear sticky ink) and then heat embossed it with white embossing powder.  




I added some fun foam to the back of the panel and adhered it to the card base.  I then added dots from the Nuvo Crystal Drops in white to finish off the card.  





Don't forget!
