Thinly spread mid-green paint onto your Gelli Plate with a brayer. Place the Pearls (Big One) onto the Gelli plate, then a piece of copier paper, press carefully & remove the excess paint. Depending on the size of your Gelli plate you may need to repeat this process… 


Let the paint dry a little then add some Calypso Teal Shimmer paint, this time place the Snowflake Mask onto the Gelli plate & repeat the copy paper method.. 


When that’s dried a little add a layer of gold paint. Using one of the larger snowflake stamps from the Boarder set, stamp off the ink (from the Gelli plate onto a piece of paper).
When done add some cream paint & take a print. 




Leave your prints to dry.. 

Using the 4” bauble template draw around the inside with a Micron Pen & cut out… 



Add some Evergreen Bough Distress Ink around the edges & some extra down one side… 



Add some snowflake’s from the Boarders set, with a teal ink … 


Cut your print down to approximately 14cm. Stamp, freehand, some of the text onto your background… 


Stamp some snowflake’s in gold ink onto your background . Add some Distress Oxide Antique Linen & Distress Ink Evergreen Bough around the edges… 



Glue the baubles to your background, I used some foam pads behind two of them.. 


Using an off cut of a background paper stamp the Crackin’ Christmas sentiment, cut out & add a white piece of paper to create a ‘mat & layer’ … 


Glue  the sentiment to your card & add a few sparkles.. 



Thank you for stopping by and Happy Christmas … Ann xxx
