Morning all!
I’m back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog today with another festive project.
This time I’ve pulled out some of the Christmas in July release from Waffle Flower for some fun and bright inking – a great way to combat the grey skies and colder temperatures!
Stamps: Waffle Flower – Family Christmas, Waffle Flower – Postage Collage North Pole, Waffle Flower – Royal Mail
Dies: Waffle Flower – Family Christmas, Waffle Flower – Postage Collage
Stencils:Waffle Flower – Postage Collage Coloring, Waffle Flower – Postage Collage Poinsettia
I started out by cutting the original A2 Postage Collage die from white cardstock and working through the four steps of the Postage Collage Poinsettia stencil set with a tried and true colour combo.
I use my Waffle Flower grip mat for all the Postage Collage stencils, and love how it holds everything in place – no need for tape or magnets.
Once my panel was done, it was time to add some postmark details with the Postage Collage North Pole and Royal Mail stamp sets. They add just enough detail and interest to that busy background.
I then picked some contrasting cardstock shades for my card base and added the airmail border with the Postage Collage Coloring stencils.
Once my card was assembled I added one of the sentiments from the Waffle Flower Family Christmas sentiment set – they’re just so handy to add to projects, as I stamped and cut all the sentiments in the set when I bought them so they’re ready to use as and when I need a festive sentiment.
As a finishing touch I added some sparkly glitter glue to the poinsettia centres and there we go, another Christmas card done.
Until next time, happy crafting!
