Christmas Flora


Christmas Flora


Hello There!

We've made it into December!
Woohoo!  Not long to go now...

Have you opened your Advent
Calendars? How exciting....!

Angela Radford is here today
with a tree ...........

"Hi all. Angela here to show you this really 
quirky Christmas tree card, using Elenazinski 
stamps (PaperArtsy). Hope you like it.



Spread some Distress Oxides onto a craft
 mat and pull a sheet of watercolour card
 through it.

 Dry between applications.


 I couldn't make my mind up about the colours 
so made two backgrounds and used a Kay Carley 
Christmas stencil to decorate the card blank.


Christmas tree and bauble stamps next 
ready to colour and cut out.


Used the holly stamp next to put a little more
 detail to the background using the second 
generation colour by stamping on waste 
paper and then onto the card.


This may look a bit crazy as I have stamped
 all the detail ready to attach the sections 
when coloured.

 By doing it this way you have the fine 
lines of the baubles string and ground lines
 for the trees and only need to cut out the 
main sections. 

I edged the card at this stage too. 
The border stamp is from a set by 
JOFY 06 (PaperArtsy).



Attach the baubles first.


Then add the trees. 

Apply the stickles glitter glue next. 

Layer the finished design onto coloured
 card of your choice and attach it to the 
card blank.


And here is a slight variation in colours.

 Hope you enjoyed watching me make these
 cards and maybe it's given you some inspiration
 for your own. 

Happy crafting, Angela xXx
