Three more Christmas cards

 Hi there.   Today I have a couple of Christmas cards to share.  These were made over the time I had off.  

My first one uses a little gel press focal image. 

I was playing with a circle gel plate and different mediums.  I tried inks and some acyrlic paints.  This one used some Jo Sonya paints.  I brayered the paint and then used a Gina K stamp (Holiday Tapestry) to rempove some of the paint before pulling a print.  I then used a circle die to cut it out.    I used one of the sentiments from the stamp set to make a the panel.  I used an embossing folder to add some texture to the background.   There are a few other circle backgrounds... but this was my favourite.  

Card Two - started with some bits on my desk.  

The plaid background was made a long time ago... It's a Catherine Pooler stamp inked in some CP ink. The die cut is a Catherine Pooler one as well that I had die cut last week and never used.   I used an Altenew stamp and die set - Sophisticated Wreath.  I used a variety of Altenew inks.  I stamped the base layer straight onto the panel and then stamped the die cut the flowers and leaves.   I added a Christmas sentiment and some red gems.  

And my last one I did yesterday after looking through my patterned paper packs for Christmas papers

I used Gina K Master Layouts to cut my papers and the layers.  I wanted some gold layers so added some washi tape around the edges of the layers.  The sentiment is a Lily of the Valley digital sentiment.  I printed the entire page of sentiments and trimmed them out.   I used an older wooden stamp Poinsettia.  It is from a now defunct NZ coy.  I gold embossed it on vellum and then stamped it on red card.  I fussy cut and layered together.  All in all a CAS card.  

thanks for stopping by.  Take care out there.
