Welcome to the first Heart Of Christmas Blog Share for 2019. This is the third year the Art With Heart team have been doing these blog shares, where every Wednesday evening in the lead up to December we will post Christmas cards for your inspiration. This is a great time of year to start, as the Holiday Catalogue is about to launch, and it's also a good idea to start your cards early!
My card uses three new Holiday Catalogue products. The stamp set is a cute new set, called # Elfie. It has a range of cute elves doing all sorts of Christmassy things - you will definitely be seeing a lot of their antics on my blog! The second is the stunning Brightly Gleaming SDSP. It's a Specialty paper, as it has gorgeous Copper highlights on half of the sheets in the pack. I wasn't really much of a copper fan until I saw this DSP!
I coloured this cheeky elf using my Blends in Night Of Navy, Crumb Cake and Ivory. The third new product, which is hard to see I the photo, is the new Shimmery Crystal Effects. It's a clear glue that has a shimmer, and that dries like a glaze. It's a lovely, subtle finishing touch.
The stamps on the inside are also from the Elfie set. It's always fabulous to have a set that combines images and sentiments for easy coordination! The gift was coloured using my Night Of Navy Blends, and then the ribbon got the Shimmery Crystal Effects treatment. It's quite quick drying - touch hard in less than 20 minutes on an area this small.
That's it from me, now it's time to head on over to Claire Daly's blog, where you'll find the rest of this week's cards. I can't wait to see what everyone's made!
Bye for now,
Tina
