Hello my crafty friends! The other day my husband and I were out Christmas shopping. We were near a Joann craft store, so I wanted to see if they had any of Tim Holtz 2021 Christmas products. The only thing I came across was this collage paper Christmas/Noel. I was so happy to get that. I live in a small town and our Joann don’t carry any of Tim Holtz products. I always order on line or go to a Joanns out of town. Came home and couldn’t wait to play with his Christmas collage paper.
Merry Christmas I cut out what I wanted to used, then I took Tim Holtz Stitched Rectangles thinlits #661189 and place on collage paper and run it threw my vagabond. Took 110 wt. white card stock and modpodge gloss which is a water base sealer, glue place on collage paper and let air dry.Used Tim Holtz tattered poinsettia big die #658261, large Funky festive thinlits #664221 and 3-D texture fade foliage #665252. Plus I used Tim Holtz distress oxides candied apple, rustic wilderness and vintage photo. Merry Christmas is from Tim Holtz Holiday Words: Script #660058.I always do something inside the card to match the front. And I like to write a personal note when It comes to Christmas. Here’s everything I used….
Hope you guys try this technique too. With anything you have in your stash. Thank you for checking out my blog. Have a wonderful day and weekend.
Hello my crafty friends! The second week of the month I always meet with a great group of crafty women. So I decided to start working my Christmas cards for this year. I always make four to five cards when I design a card. But I make each card different meaning colors or saying. Then I designs more cards for Christmas that our different. Until I get at least 80 cards done for Christmas this year, plus more to have extra. Here is my first set of cards I made.
Let it Snow, Joy and Hello Winter
I found this Snowflake Die on Amazon, fell in love with it and so I purchased it. I also found a couple more dies too and purchased them. When I make more Christmas I’ll post them. I took the snowflake die, tape it down on water color paper and used it like a stencil. Took Tim Holtz distress oxides salvaged patina, wild honey and specked egg, blended the colors together. I love the look I got when I lift the die up.
I also took the snowflake die and ran it thew my vagabond, cut out two snowflakes on 110 white card stock. Then I used recollections glitter paste and cover the snowflakes. The glitter paste gave it a beautiful shimmer look to my snowflakes. I let air dry. Once dried I glue my snowflakes cut out to my background.
Took Tim Holtz Thinlits set called Festive words #667775 cut out on some shimmer paper and blended the same distress oxide colors I used on background. Add some sequin mix from Picket fence studios Spring fling SQ-129 to my card.
I really love the way this card came out, so I did another one with the same color but put a different saying on this one. Still Tim Holtz Thinlits Hello winter.
Tim Holtz distress Oxides I used here are peacock feathers, cracked pistachio and mermaid lagoon.
Tim Holtz distress oxides here on this card is broken china, hickory smoke and prize ribbon.

I received theses new products so I wanted to create some beautiful elegant cards. I’ll list everything down below.
Beautiful Lilies
Theses beautiful lilies I die cut out of the crafters companion cardstock. I used Tim Holtz distress oxides kitsch flamingo and picked raspberry, blended the edges. Plus I use distress stickler dry glitter on the flowers.
Took my glimmer hot foil system and created all the backgrounds with pink champagne foil. Spellbinder more sentiment, Essential Rectangles and a really pretty one that came with my machine.
Each card came out really beautiful. I also used white card stock #110 and stamp envelopes to match the cards and also place the beautiful lilies in side the cards. Here a picture of all products I used…….
