CARD#s HPJ-2016-30 to 50: Holiday Cards

Hi again! I wasn't supposed to take in more commissions aside from the tags, but a friend asked for a favor so I took some time to make twenty Christmas cards. I made them light and simple since they will be mailed abroad. I just hope the recipients like them. Here they are.



For the first set, I went vintage. I just adhered some diecuts and stickers to add dimension and interest to the cards. 












As for the second set, I made it really neat and simple. Half of it was splattered with ink while I let the other half alone. They turned out cute. I want them for myself! I think I'll make more cards with this style for other occasions. Gah. Wait till I get my hands on those Tim Holtz and Prima stencils! I'll go crazy stenciling away. Haha.

So, how did I make them? Easy peasy. I first stenciled using light molding paste. After drying, I splattered glimmer mist onto five of the cards. I then added the stamped images (I adhered some chipboard at the back of the cutouts for dimension.). I wrote the sentiments on pieces of black board paper using white pigment ink pen. And that was that! Done!











By the way, the cards are 4 1/4" x  5 1/2" (A2).

How do you find the cards? I hope you like them. Till next time! (I will post about six more cards before the year ends.) Thanks for looking today! Have a great week! Happy Holidays!!!
