A Magical Christmas Card!

A Magical Christmas Card!

Hello everyone! It's very hot outside so we are so glad to be crafting on some Christmas cards, dreaming of cooler weather! Happy Christmas in July! Thank you for stopping by, we are so glad you did!

This card was inspired by all of the fun Christmas in July Crafty Challenges going on! Links to all the challenges are near the end of this post! Check them out and join in the fun!

To make this card I used various green distress inks and water. I spread some ink out on my watercolor tray. I used water and mixed the ink and then made little splotches of paint for the background. I then used the Tim Holtz STAMPtember 2025 Release. I stamped the images and the sentiment on the dried ink/paint splotches. I loved how the card turned out! 

Here is the card:

Products I used:

  • Tim Holtz STAMPtember 2025 Release Stamp Set
  • Tim Holtz Rustic Wilderness Distress Ink
  • Tim Holtz Twisted Citron Distress Oxide
  • Simon Says Stamp Nocturne Black VersaFine Clair Ink Pad
  • 140 lb watercolor paper
  • Various colored cardstock and embellishments from personal crafting stash

Here are some more photos to show some close-up details of this card:





......and that's it!
