Embrace the Imperfect – Make a Christmas Card

Embrace the Imperfect – Make a Christmas Card – Holly Jolly Wishes – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK

I love this card as the strips of paper are meant to be wonky. The imperfect lines make this card look fabulous. I cut the strips at different angles with no measuring, no right or wrong. I just went for it. There is a little gap between each strip so they really pop from each other. The large sentiment and some foil sheet and bingo, you have a really great card.

How to * Snowflake Heat Embossed Background

How to * Snowflake Heat Embossed Background – Snowflake Wishes – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK

How is everyone doing? Only a few weeks until Christmas. Are you excited? Yes, I am. I love the build-up to Christmas with all the lovely music, pretty lights and of course Christmas movies.

Here is a snowflake card I have to share with you today. I heat embossed the snowflakes with white embossing powder. They look so vibrant against the Night of Navy background. If you use a white craft ink it will never look as bright as white heat embossing. I used rhinestones in the centre of each snowflake for that extra bling effect!!

How to use Gilding Flakes with Stencils – Christmas

How to use Gilding Flakes with Stencils – Christmas – Perfectly Plaid – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK

I was so excited when the gilded flakes came out and couldn’t wait to use them. Of course, I did and then put them away and forgot about them. I was watching a video about gilding flakes and thought I need to pull them out and use them again so I did. Here is what I came up with.

I tacked my piece of basic white cardstock down to the stencil with low tack tape so it wouldn’t move on me. Next, I used versamark ink through the stencil, removed the stencil and applied heat & stick powder. Remember not to overheat the heat and stick powder, move on to the next section as soon as it’s melted. The gilding flakes stick to the heat & stick powder. Buff away the excess flakes and there you go!!

Make a Candy Cane Pouch for Christmas

Make a Candy Cane Pouch for Christmas – Holly Jolly Wishes – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

I make one of these candy cane pouches each year and this is my offering this time. I hope you like it. It is very easy to make and a lovely little gift to any house guest over Christmas.

I’ve used the Tidings of Christmas Designer Series Paper (DSP) which has lovely small patterns perfect for small projects such as these. I should warn you though to never eat any sweets, chocolates or candy canes you find in my craft room as they have been used and reused in project samples and are well out of date!! These candy canes are from last year. The good stuff is kept in the pantry.

Using a Sentiment to Make a Background

Using a Sentiment to Make a Background – Holly Jolly Wishes – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

I just used one simple sentiment, repeatedly stamped to make this background. It’s quite effective. I stamped using versamark ink and heat embossed with clear embossing powder. This gives a tone on tone effect but also some dimension to the background. The focal image is a journalling card from the Gingerbread & Peppermint Memory & More pack. Easy card to make and easy to repeat.

Simple One Layer Card – Heat Embossing & Stamping

Simple One Layer Card – Heat Embossing & Stamping – Evergreen Elegance – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK

This is a really easy Christmas card to make. The Evergreen Elegance stamp set has a few trees of different sizes and heights to make your own forest. I stamped in Shaded Spruce as I love the lovely vibrant, saturated green it gives. The top of the card looked a little bare so I heat embossed the sentiment and stars in gold embossing powder. It wasn’t always easy to see the versamark ink for the stars, I can tell you.

Make a Christmas Card with a Secret Message / Tag

Make a Christmas Card with a Secret Message / Tag – Sweet Stocking – Holly Jolly Wishes – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up Demonstrator Lincoln UK.

I’ve made this style of card a number of times now. I just love the idea of the place for a hidden tag or gift card. The paper I used this time is the Sweet Stocking Designer Series Paper (DSP). It’s so cute that I didn’t want to cover it up with too many embellishments. I really wanted to let this paper sing good and loud.

*Make a Snowman Christmas Card Today with Me

*Make a Snowman Christmas Card Today with Me – Snowflake Season – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

Didn’t this turn out well? I love it. I heat embossed the snowflakes with white embossing powder. This is the best way to get a bright white colour on a coloured background. If you use white craft ink the effect is still muted and not bright white. The snowflake stamp is one little stamp that I stamped and stamped again. Just make sure you keep turning the stamp around to change the orientation. This makes sure it doesn’t look repetitive.

How to Colour the Poinsettia Petals Stamp Set

How to Colour the Poinsettia Petals Stamp Set – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

I absolutely love the Poinsettia Petals stamp set. It carried over from the catalogue last year and I was so pleased. If you have read my blog before you will know I adore poinsettias and colouring. This card is a match made in heaven for me. I used the Stampin’ Blend Alcohol Markers to colour. I put a talking book and spent a lovely, relaxing time colouring in.

The Stampin’ Blends come in combo packs of a light and dark of each colour. If I wanted more shading I used more than one colour eg I used Real Red and Cherry Cobbler for the red and Olive and Mossy Meadow for the green.

How to Use the Knit Together Background Stamp

How to Use the Knit Together Background Stamp – Christmas to Remember – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

At first glance, background stamps can be quite intimidating. They are so big and take up so much space on a card. You can sometimes feel unsure how to use them in a way that doesn’t overpower everything. Tone on tone stamping in the background is a great way to use background stamps. It gives interest in the background but doesn’t detract from the focal image. That is what I’ve done here.
