Andrea made three gift boxes using three main elements: coffee filter leaves, sentiments, and background stamping using Darkroom Door’s Coffee Stain and Dina Wakley’s Gals and Borders set.

Anna-Karin used a trio of Distress Inks (Wilted Violet, Cracked Pistachio and Blueprint Sketch) to colour her December Countdown Calendar tags, which will later go into her December journal.

Barbara  has used this theme to create a trio of Christmas cards using three different deer by Tim Holtz: Scribble Woodland stamps, Dashing deer and Prancing deer Bigz dies and a lots of Idea-ology embellishments!

Cathie used the Trio-tastic theme in several areas of her mixed media panel. She used Tim Holtz Thinlits Detailed Butterflies, Dina Wakley Grungy Stars and Textures stamp sets in threes.

Macarena let the bird go out from its golden cage using Caged Bird and Wildflowers dies and Random Circles background stamp covering it all with 3 embossing powders!

Maura followed her own path this week along with a trio of elephants, using the wonderful Stampendous set by Nathalie Kahlbach. Dina Wakley’s Elephant Heavy Body Acrylic seemed like the perfect color to use in the big Dylusions Art Journal.
