Digi stamp Boutique

 

Well back to Christmas cards this week and I got this fab digi stamp from DigiStamp Boutique this week and its so cute and Christmassy

 

 

I loaded the image into Craft Artist and as it is a png I was able to put it over some backing paper that also got from DigiStamp Boutique I got this idea from Donna Barber. and it is a lot easier than cutting it out and layering.

 

 

The Card was cut out on my silhouette from a downloaded file called centre panel step card, I also loaded the backing paper straight into the silhouette and used the print and cut feature for all the backing pieces. My sentiment was from digistamp boutique too and printed and cut with the silhouette.

 

 

I have colour the image with pro markers and have glittered the snow and used glossy accents on the baubles and the snow mans lovely carrot nose.

3D Picture Box

Just thought I'd have a break from Christmas craft this week and try some thing new too. I was inspired to do this from a pin on pinterest http://www.pinterest.com/pin/314689092682440976/

 

I printed a sheet of backing paper with a great text pattern and then put it into the silhouette cameo to cut out the hearts. I  used the negative part of the of the hearts as a template to line up the hearts on a plain white background. I print the pattern again to create a border.

 

 

I distressed the edges of my hearts with tim holtz antique linen distress inks and for the red one I used xmas red stickles.

 

 

I used 3d pads to lift the hearts for a great 3D effect.

 

 

I got the 3D box from hobby craft it was already painted white. Hope you like it.
