Kerrie DT - Yuletide Eric & Elsie

Hiya and welcome to my Monday Post for Bee Crafty

I'm still getting ahead with some of my Christmas Makes so this week I have made A 'Yuletide' Card with 'Eric & Elsie'

I created an Easel Card using two scalloped cardblanks - I stamped 'Eric & Elsie' onto watercolour cardstock then stamped the 'Holly Swirl' around the edges using clear embossing ink which I then tipped True White embossing powder over before heating with a heat tool to create a resist for later. Next I watercoloured the elves using my old travel watercolour kit which is over 12years old but still has lots left - I have recently started to relove some of my older craft stash. 

Once I had coloured 'Eric & Elsie' I then inked over the heat embossed 'Holly Swirl's using Distress Inks - 'Peeled Paint' and 'Fired Brick', once dry I buffed over the embossed areas using a dry cloth which removed all the ink from it.

 All the matticng and layering is using some pearlescent bronze card.

I used 2 'Yuletide' sentiments on the card, one for the card front and one for the stepper stop 'Dear Santa' and 'Circle Message Holly'

In 6 Months...

...it will all be over for another year!

Hi Everyone

Hows your week been?

I decided that being as in 6 months time it will be done I would pop a little Christmas card on that I have made!!!

Using three of the stamps from the Yuletide range.  Within this range there is something for everyone and this card can easily be adapted to accommodate any of these stamps.

making a small tag with the small Under my Tree stamp I tucked that in below the red ribbon

the trees from the winter wonderland make a cute border along the bottom of the lower piece of green paper

The large Happy Christmas makes a cute centrepiece for this card with the red ribbon underneath.  I stamped this in Fired Brick from the Distress Ink Range.

Hope you like it
