Good morning everyone. Well the countdown is on to Christmas. The children are getting excited, The tree is up and we a re in the process of making cards for all their school friends. Today I am sharing two cards that I created using the totally awesome Memory Maze Chipboard.
................
I had lots of fun playing with these designs.
Silent Night
This first card is super easy to do. I painted all the designs in black distress paint and let dry.
While it was drying I created my background by using three colours of distress ink and blended them in to give me my background of a sunset.
For the big star I covered it with distress glitter. I love this glitter, such a vintage feel to it., once ever thing was dry I glued them all down. To make the frame stand out I covered it in a thin layer of glossy accents.

Let t snow :-)
I can not take credit for the design of this stunning card. It has been totally inspired by the one and only Tim Holtz. I have changed the stamping to Chipboard and love the overall effect.
For this card I broke down one of the snowflake boarders into individual snowflakes, painted them with distress paint and then added a think coat of distress glitter to make it look like snow. I added a pearl into each of them.
I am a layer girl and I love all the different layers on this, hard to believe there is 11 layers to get this effect. But well worth it and the snow flakes make this card.
