HOLLY TREE

This week , our ladies made their first Christmas cards ready for the Festive Season.


Our cards were inspired by the New clear stamp set from Woodware and a range of Dies from Sue Wilson.The perfect way to start your Christmas Cards.

The products used were 

Woodware Clear Stamp set - Holly Tree (jgs418)

Sue Wilson Die - Gemini Pavo (CED4409)

The stamped images were heat embossed and then Cosmic shimmer Mica Powers were used to colour in images.If you have not used Mica Powder as paints before all you need to do is take a small amount of mica powder ,placed on a piece of acetate or craft sheet and mix with water .The mica powders create a wonder shimmer effect.
