3 ornaments Tis the Season

Tim Holtz hit it out of the ballpark with this sketched Christmas set called Season of Magic. I love all the hand sketched items and have most of my Christmas cards done already. I used the Wonky Stitched Rectangle die cut by Gina Marie Designs. I watercolored the ornaments with Tim Holtz Distress Stain and water.

Criss Cross Santa

I stamped Merry Christmas all over the page and then cut them into strips. I put these strips of cardstock in and out and it took a little longer than I expected it to. But I do love how it came out. Watercolored the Santa and stuck it on.

On Thursday I was making Halloween charms with hot glue. Somehow I managed to dip 4 of my fingers in the hot glue and got 2nd degree burns on my one finger and blisters on 3 others, Went to urgent care where they cleaned them off, put on some antibiotic and wrapped them up. So ... not sure if I can stamp like this but I'm going to see how I do today. It was VERY PAINFUL when it first happened but I'm much better now. Who knew hot glue could be so HOT?????

Halloween is in 1 week. We had 40 trick or treaters last year. We have our candy, just need to stop eating it.

Such a quick and easy card to make with these die cuts.
