Merry Christmas Filigree

Hello folks! Today I want to share my 3rd Christmas card with Hero Arts stamps with you! I love Hero Arts 2014 Christmas stamp sets so much. Those stamp sets make me think of watercolouring. Don’t you think?!

HeroArtsHolidayChallengeAnyway, I’m entering this card in the Hero Arts Holiday Challenge: Anything Goes holiday cards and projects!

Here is my first card:
20141013-01-EN
First I heat embossed Hero Arts Merry Christmas Filigree Stamp on the watercolour paper in white. I then coloured around the stamped sentiment using my Peerless watercolours! To finish it off I added white & gold ink splatters to the background and sentiment area.

My second card is watercolour card as well:

20141013-03-ENI made Christmas tree shape card. I think it could be used not only card but also hanging ornament on a Christmas tree :D

I die-cut onto the watercolour paper using Sizzix Trees Christmas die and heat embossed Hero Arts Merry Christmas Filigree Stamp in white. I then blended Tumbled Glass, Peacock Feathers, Faded Jeans, Seedless Preserves distress inks using an ink blending tool. I then layered Simon Says Stamp Falling Snow Stencil over the panel and applied white embossing paste. To finish it off I spritzed it with water and added some white ink splatters onto the tree shaped panel for having a snowy winter in my card even though I can’t get a white Christmas in Sydney…lol!

Ornaments with Joy!

Hello folks! I just popping in to share my gold embossing Christmas card today. Wow! Christmas seems to come close :D

Here is my ornament card:
20141001-01
I love Hero Arts 2014 Christmas release. They are all truly amazing!

I made it with Hero Arts Stamp & Cuts Let It Snow. I used both solid and outline ornament stamps. First, I heat embossed ornaments in gold and then cut out stamped images using a coordinating die. It is so much easier than cutting with scissors and much less time consuming :D I finished it off with red & white twine, some clear rhinestones, and sequins.
