 I'm sharing a Christmas card today for Paper Rose Studio.

I stamped the Christmas Poinsettia stamp multiple time around the edge of a white card, and coloured them with Copic markers. I cut the Merry Christmas Layered die from some gold mirror cardstock and layered it on two extra layers of white cardstock before adhering it in the centre of my card.

Spellbinders Holly Background glimmer

I recently had a couple of crafty friends over for a crafternoon, and I got to play with the Spellbinders Holly Background glimmer plate and coordinating layering stencils (thanks, Deb!). I made a bunch of backgrounds, so I made a bunch of cards (I'll share some of the other ones another day).

Mixed media for Paper Rose

Compensated affiliate links may be used - these are at no extra cost to you. I appreciate your support! 

 Today, I'm sharing a pair of mixed media cards I made using products from Paper Rose Studio.

I created a single mixed media panel and cut it down to create two cards. I started by ink blending some distress inks onto a panel of Strathmore Bristol cardstock. I then stamped onto it with the Beautiful Mandala stamp and the Text Background stamp. I then added some ink through the Small Drops stencil, glitter paste through the Flowy Leaves stencil, and pearl texture paste through the Leafy Circle Lattice stencil. I cut the panel to fit my card with a little white border around the edge, added a white die cut (Feather trio dies on one card and the Lyla Butterfly die on the other) and a printed sentiment from Black and White Sentiments.
