Hello! This mixed-media Christmas card was created using Tim Holtz supplies and features a pair of die-cut ice skates filled with festive holiday greenery. A classic sentiment completes the design, giving the card a timeless winter feel that’s both nostalgic and elegant.
-
- Dry-emboss an A2-size panel of watercolor cardstock colored with Tumbled Glass Distress Spray with a snowflake embossing folder. (I used the now-retired Sizzix Tim Holtz Simple Snowflakes 662432 folder.) Add to a card base.
- Heat-emboss in silver the Mixed Media 32 (aka Sketch Greenery) sentiment on watercolor cardstock and cut with a label die (from the now-retired Tag Collection set 658784). Add to the prepared base.
- With the Vault Winter Wishes set, cut the skates. Color, assemble, and add crochet thread for the laces.
- With the Vault Holiday Greens and Christmas Minis sets, cut greenery and berries from watercolor cardstock color with Distress Sprays. Assemble. Add Snowfall Grit paste to some of the greens.
- Add the assembled skates to the card base with the greenery arranged in the skates.
What a great idea to put greenery in the skates! Beautiful card.
