Ann enjoys sending warm winter wishes in handmade cards. She has used the SSS Tiny Words Christmas stamp, distress oxides, metallic craft stock, and most importantly, the Tim Holtz Wise Men die to create her holiday cards. On her blog, Ann shares how it all started as a white on white card and evolved.
Andrea is warmed on cold snowy winter days by thoughts of home and happy times. She made this journal page using two new stamp sets by Inky Antics: Tiny Houses and Big Houses. The journal she used is a Dylusions Creative Dyary.
Anna-Karin thought of shades of gold in relation to warm winter wishes and created a vintage Christmas scene in an altered tin. She used Tim Holtz Salvaged Santa, Small Woodland Tree and Decorative Deer.
Barbara is in a festive Christmas mood! She created a tag with warm colors using Tim Holtz Merry Moose die, Tim Holtz Festive Overlay stamp set combined with Ranger Vintage foil.
Emma created an etcetera tag with the message of wishing everyone joy and peace at Christmas. She layered a glittered die cut heart using the Heartfelt Die together with Angelic Adornments over the top of the gorgeous Ice Flake and an Christmas Ephemera piece.
Kath created a page in her Dina Wakley Media Journal recalling fond childhood memories of returning home to cosy up at a roaring fire with a mug of hot chocolate and warm buttered toast after fun winter days playing in the snow. She used Tim Holtz/Sizzix Flurry 2 Thinlits, Holiday Knit Layering Stencil, Idea-ology Christmas Paper Stash, Christmas Paper Dolls, Quote Chips and Design Tape to decorate her winter page
Macarena has made a set of Xmas cards in a deep brown shades using Tim Holtz Sizzix Lumber 3D Texture Fade Embossing Folder, Simon Says Stamp Mod Trees Background stamp and Tim Holtz Sizzix Winter Wonderland die.
Maura was inspired by warm colors of alcohol inks to make some Christmas cards using Tim Holtz’s Lift Ink and the Simon Says Stamp Big Scripty Holiday set.
Meihsia was inspired to create a mixed media wall decor for Christmas using Tim Holtz Idea-Ology Christmas Quote Chips and Quote Tokens to decorate the canvas.
Sandra made a wintery green Christmas card using Distress Inks Pine Needle, Iced Spruce, Evergreen Bough and Hickory Smoke in the back and with the Tree Line stamp.
Zoey did a simple Christmas Card using a brayer , Tim Holtz Distress Paint – Peacock Feather , Simon Says Stamp Gold Embossing Powder and this amazing Simon Says Stamp Clear Stamp !
