AB Studio Holly Jolly Christmas papers

Pentart glitter paste

pentart modeling paste

from my stash i used,  red acrylic paint, 3d foam pads, clear gesso, gel medium.

firstly i covered my tag with paper from the pack and then i coloured my paste with the red paint and stencilled it onto the back ground.

i  then did some fussy cutting and using the 3d foam pads and gel medium i layered up my design.

i then went over thw whole thing with the clear gesso, when that was all dry i added the glitter paste to the raised stencill on the back ground and the baubles and candy canes.

lastly i watered down some white gesso and some of the red paint separately and splattered all over with both.

from my stash i also used white gesso, clear gesso, some red paint  and a wooden word Believe.

Firstly I stencilled my trees and the snow flakes and fussy cut some from the gold foiled sheet when it was all dry i covered it all except the gold foil with clear gesso.

i used my magic paint, ble saphire and then my waxes to coour my back ground.

I then fussy cut lots of the elements from the extra sheet in the paper pack and some of the larger poinsettia from one of the sheets in the pack.

next I backed my reindeer to give him a bit of strength and then layered up my paper elements, painted them all with clear gesso to add strength .

I painted my wooden word believe in red and added my title and layered up round it.

I then added my flowers and lastly splattered with watered down white gesso.
