Live Simply – Give Generously

September 28, 2021

Hi there,

It’s Tanja here and today I would like to show you step-by-step how to create this flower Pocket card.

Step 1: Die-Cutting

  • die cut the pocket from the Planner Essentials 26 die set and some flowers from the Florals 2 and Florals 3 sets

Step 2: Adding Color

  • color the flowers and leaves with Alcohol Markers
  • add color to the pocket with acrylic paint – run it through your die cutting machine in an embossing folder for the extra woodgrain texture

Step 3: Assembly

  • adhere the pocket to a kraft cardbase sprinkled with acrylic paint and Distress Stain

Step 4: Finishing Touches

  • add yellow Craft Drops to the flower centers and a sentiment from the Tim Holtz Small Talk sticker set

Thanks for stopping by.

Hugs,

Hi there,

It’s Tanja here and today I would like to show you how to create this Mixed Media Christmas Tag.

Step 1: Die Cutting

  • die cut the smaller tag from the Planner Essentials 26 from kraft cardstock

Step 2: Adding Texture to the Background

  • adhere tissue paper to the tag using matte medium
  • apply crackle paste at random spots
  • add some Distress Stain Tarnished Brass for extra shine

Step 3: Stamping

  • stamp the branches from the Spring Fling set with Versafine Clair Fallen Leaves and heat-emboss them with WOW! Clear Matt Dull embossing powder
  • ink up the edges of the tag with Distress Oxide Ink Ground Espresso

Step 4: Finishing Touches

  • dye a piece of torn seam binding with Distress Oxide Ink Ground Espresso
  • stamp the sentiment from the Classic Christmas Sentiments with that same brown ink onto a strip of kraft cardstock
  • add some splatters with watered-down white acrylic paint

I hope you got inspired.

Hugs,
