Contemporary Christmas Card-A Compilation of Old and New Tim Holtz Products

 Hello! I hope you are enjoying this wonderful Advent season! I have a simple (and I mean SIMPLE) Christmas card to share with you. This one marries some of Tim Holtz older releases as well as the newly released Funky Festive Thinlits dies.

The 'Christmas' die cut is left over from this card using the Retro Merry Christmas Thinlits die set. All I had to do was cut the included 'Merry' out of Metallic Kraft Stock.

I  colored a scrap of Distress Mixed Media Heavystock with Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide to cut greens from the Funky Festive set and added a few Holiday greens I had on my worktop. The bow  (Funky Festive) was also cut from metallic card.

The black card was stamped with the Nordic stamp (Plaid & Nordic) using more Cracked Pistachio oxide ink. I tap the stamp with the ink pad and spritz the stamp lightly with water before making the impression. This was mounted on a panel of Metallic silver and all the die cuts were adhered with Distress Collage Medium Matte.

I'll have a few more cards to share with you, and then I will take a few weeks off from blogging to celebrate Christmas with my family

Merry Christmas!
