Christmas style ATC

Hello crafty souls Ulrika here again!

I love creating projects with a Christmas theme so much that I needed to make an extra blog post this week! Today I have three ATC with lots of gold and stunning flowers from WOC to share with you. If you´re not familiar with ATC the size is always 2,5x3,5.

 When you make ATC it´s perfect to use your scraps! On my ATC today I tried to make them in the same style as if I had made a regular sized Christmas card. 

 It´s a bit difficult to take photos with all that sparkle but I hope you can see all the cute details! 

The Berries together with the beautiful Roses and cute mini Sweethart flowers really give my ATC a elegant and pretty look!

 I wanted the flowers to stand out a bit from all that gold so I let them be bare without any glitter this time. I only added some of the golden micro beads on some of them.

To get some interesting texture I also added some gold colored Stamens between the flowers.

Thank you for visiting the Wild Orchid Crafts blog today!

Hugs from Ulrika!

Gold Double Head Pearl Stamens - MKX-566

Miniature Mixed Green Sweetheart Blossom Flowers - MKX-397

Cuddly Ride

 

Hi there, here’s another Christmas card, this one using totally non-traditional colours.  I don’t think I have made many traditional cards this year.

Seam binding and flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts: Chrysanthemum. carnation, small gardenia, open roses white bead berry spray, clear rhinestone flourishes.

I {heart} Christmas

I had a play with something different for a very special friend who I think is the biggest fan of Christmas on this planet.  Seriously!  She has thousands of ornaments from all over the world so I wanted to make her something that I know she won’t already have.

 

Lots of delicious Wild Orchid Crafts products were used: Trellis Rose, Cottage Rose, Open Roses 15mm and 20mm, white cabochon angel, gold bells, white stamens.  I dabbed white paint on to the flowers using a small piece of sponge (much more controlled than using a paintbrush) then once dry slathered on Mercury Glass Stickles.

 

The edges were painted with gold paint before I adhered the paper on then once dry the edges were inked and glittered.

 

 

My lovely hubby bent some brass tubing into ‘S’ shapes so I could join the hearts together

 

 

I bought the hearts from my local craft shop but I would think you could cut them quite easily from chipboard or mount board.  I covered the front and back of each heart with Bo Bunny paper.

 

I had such fun making this and it only took a couple of hours to do.

Snow Bunny

Hi there, here’s another Christmas card from me.  I have used some delish new (and not so new) products from Wild Orchid Crafts.  Magnolia, cherry blossom, lilies, forget me nots, cones from the red Christmas berry spray, fullness of summer cut-out set (the chipboard dandelion type thing lol), pearl flourish, seam binding and a cabochon angel.

 

The image is Snow Bunny from Whimsy Stamps.

 

The paper is from the First Edition Gilded Winter pad, LOVE this pad so much!

Christmas Stocking

Whilst browsing Pinterest last week, and losing hours and hours – sheesh that place is dangerous, I saw some cute Christmas stocking cards.  I had an idea to make an ornament instead of a card to give to special friends so they can use it again and again.  A few hours later this is what I came up with.  I love it!

I downloaded a few free templates off the internet and cobbled/adapted them till I got the shape I liked.  It roughly measures 7.5” at the longest points.  I cut this from mountboard, my local picture framers so very kindly donated some to the cause.  Then the fun began.  Out came the Christmas papers and embellies.

The embellies are mostly from Wild Orchid Crafts – Poinsettia large, pulled apart then spritzed with pearl shimmer then edges inked then reassembled with strong glue and finished off with a flatback pearls in a gold flower; small poinsettia I did the same but finished off with a gold finding and pearl.  Holly leaves, berries from the gold Christmas berry spray, and open roses in 20mm, 15mm and 10mm.  I also added a couple of gold bells to the ribbon bow and finished off with a wooden sentiment that I painted with gold paint then slathered in gold stickles.

I finished off the front with a couple of sentiment tags.

And a look at the back, where I have added a sentiment and left space to address the “card”.  I really had fun making this and have quite a few ideas for more using different shapes. 

 

Lots of textures.

 

I didn't make very many Christmas cards this year and this one is probably one of my favorites. I have used so many of WOC products. I just LOVE this lace trim. Hopefully it's back in stock soon.  I really like how I used so many different textures. Flowers, lace, pinecone.. there's do much dimension to this card. Which is my favorite part of cardmaking and papercrafting. Wild Orchid Crafts is the perfect store for adding textures and dimension!

Hope you have a wonderful day.

Hugs, Mindy

Roses for Christmas

I’m covering for our Pops today because the poor thing is swamped with house remodelling.  

The flowers (curly wild rose, 25mm roses, 15mm roses) , leaves, lace and pearls are from Wild Orchid Crafts as are the berries which started life out red before they got dunked in some German Glass Glitter. I love this stuff – try twirling the waste wire from the flowers, coating it in glossy accents and dunk into some glass glitter, lovely sparkly twirlies!

 

hugs
