Holiday Card

Hello crafty souls Ulrika here!

My three month as a Wild Orchid Crafts designer is coming to an end and this will be my last post here. I couldn´t help myself from creating one more Holiday card. It´s so much fun!

For my card I have layered paper, tags, dolies and different die-cuts. I have also mixed some of my handmade flowers and some ready to use flowers.

I think this color combination with white, red and teal really feels festive and fun!

Both Berries and some of my flowers have a nice sparkly coat of glitter.

Thank you for visiting the Wild Orchid Crafts blog today! Hugs from Ulrika!

Green Hearts for Christmas

Hello crafty souls Ulrika here!

I really like to totally change bargain buys! I bought these cute hearts 50% off and totally gave them a makeover! They were white with dragonfly stickers on when I bought them.

 First I painted them with gesso and then I added some texture with a stencil and modeling paste. Then I painted the hearts with a really shiny green color and also added two different shades of metallique wax. After the hearts was dry properly the fun begin with adding lots of flowers!

 I mixed Roses, Lily Flowers, Miniature Sweetheart Blossoms and Berries. To get even more texture I added two sizes of Art-stones from Prima, Glassfillers and a ton of glitter.

Thank You for visiting Wild Orchid Crafts blog today!

Hugs from Ulrika!

I used following products from Wild Orchid Crafts:

Gold Frosted Berry Spray - MKX-676

Mixed Christmas Colors Open Roses 15mm MKX-711

Mixed Green Mulberry Paper Lily Flowers MKX-133

Mixed Green Open Roses 20mm MKX-075

Miniature Mixed Green Sweethart Flowers MKX-397

Christmas box and matching card

Hello crafty souls Ulrika here!

I think it´s really nice to have a matching box with your card when you give it to someone really special! I think my sons teacher will get this box and card as Christmas gift. It´s really easy to fold your own box just make sure the box is a bit larger than your card so the card will fit in your box.

For my card and box I used papers from Swedish Maja Design. 

 The lid on the box and the card inside have similar design but still slightly different. On my lid I framed the image with a snow themed chipboard frame. 

 I chose white, grey and silver grey flowers for my flower cluster. For more shapes and textures I also added white frosted berries and white bead stamens.

 When you open the box you find the card inside.

 I used the same shape for the image but framed it different.

On both papers and embellishments I used Gesso for some white wash and highlights. I think the white Gesso add to the wintry feeling almost looking like snow.

Thank you for visiting Wild Orchid Crafts blog today!
