Ok. It's time to getting to my cards. September is perfect season to start prepare Christmas card and I have 4 holiday cards to share with you today. Let's get started!


[ The Ton Holly Branch Stamp Set ]



For my first card, I started by ink blending the background with distress inks on A2 sized card base. I splattered white acrylic paints with water here and there and drew more snows with gel pen. I trimmed white woodgrain card stock and foam mounted them on the card base as shown in the picture.


I stamped each layers of branch image from The Ton Holly Branch Stamp set with dye inks. I added some details to the branch, leaves and berries with copic markers. I then applied Marvy snow marker over the image and heat embossed it.


I white heat embossed sentiment from same stamp set on a piece of red card stock. By form mounting branch and sentiment banner, I finished this card off.


[ The Ton Christmas Wreath Builder Stamp Set ]



After having a good time on the snowy outside, I wanted to come back to my cozy home. And see? I decorated my door with Christmas wreath! :)



I started by creating the door texture with my paper trimmer and scoring folder. It's not complicated. I scored 2 small rectangles and 1 large rectangle 2 times on both sides of A2 sized card stock.


Next, I stamped layered wreath images and other elements from The Ton Christmas Wreath Builder Stamp Set using dye inks. I then trimmed images using scissors and foam mounted them on the door.

I white heat embossed sentiment from same stamp set on dark grey card stock and glued sentiment panel on the bottom of door. Then, I mounted door panel to the white card base.



[ The Ton Cozy Poinsettias Stamp Set -1 ]



When you opened the door, you can find beautifully decorated fireplace in my home!

To start, I die cut small rectangle from white card stock to create fireplace. I then stenciled bricks using Ranger texture paste.


While dried it completely, I gold heat embossed flowers from The Ton Cozy Poinsettias Stamp Set and colored them with Zig clean color real brush markers. I trimmed it using scissors.


I stamped sentiment on a piece of grey card stock and heat embossed it with The Ton Rose gold embossing powder. I mounted it on dark brown card stock and made shaker using lots of foam tape and acetate. 

To finish it off, I foam mounted poinsettia flowers where I wanted them. I glued dark brown panel with fireplace on A2 sized white card base.


[ The Ton Cozy Poinsettias Stamp Set -2 ]



My little story is finished now, but I'd like to share one more card making with 3 stamp sets I used today, The Ton Cozy Poinsettias Stamp Set, Christmas Wreath Builder Stamp Set, Holly Branch Stamp Set.



I stamped poinsettias from The Ton Cozy Poinsettias Stamp Set onto red card stock and heat embossed with Ranger Snowflake tinsel embossing powder. I then colored them with Prisma Metallic Accents.

For background, I randomly stamped poinsettia flower from The Ton Christmas Wreath Builder Stamp Set using Versamark ink. I heat embossed them with clear embossing powder to get tone-on-tone look.

I glued clear embossed panel to light grey card stock and foam mounted poinsettias as shown in the picture.


For sentiment, I gold heat embossed it from The Ton Holly Branch Stamp Set on vellum and cut it out using circle die. I then mounted it on the red panel using clear foam adhesive.

To finish, I glued light grey panel to A2 sized kraft card base.

Everything about it is wonderful! Your wreath card is so sweet. I love the colors you chose for it, as well.
