Welcome to my creative space!
I have one final Christmas card to share using the gorgeous Amazing Paper Grace Holiday Medley Collection. It has been so wonderful having the opportunity to work with these fabulous dies to create my Christmas cards this year!
This card features a fun and fabulous technique using the Pinstripe Bracket Card Builder set (GLP-280) that includes a pinstripe Glimmer Foil Hot Plate. Rather than foiling, I've used ink to create the striped patterned paper for my card. You can find the full tutorial exclusively in the Amazing Paper Grace Creative - Creative Encouragement Community Facebook Group.
This lovely group includes exclusive tutorial content. I share a mixed media tutorial there on the 13th of each month. The tutorial for this project includes a detailed step by step photo tutorial teaching you how to create this one of a kind patterned paper for your projects. If you're not a part of this fabulous and encouraging group you can join HERE.
Thank you Amazing Paper Grace for providing the dies used in this project.

Don't you just adore this handmade pinstripe paper with the organic, grungy feel? The gorgeous handcrafted poinsettias are cut with the Cinch and Go Poinsettia Dies. They are cut from the same cream patterned paper used as the base for the pinstripe design, then inked with Distress Ink before shaping. I just adore the veined texture embossed into the petals as they are die cut.
The Christmas sentiment and shimmering snowflakes are from the Silent Night Make a Scene Die Set. The green bracket shape is cut with the Mosaic Bracket Card Builder Dies that coordinate beautifully with the Pinstripe Bracket Card Builder.
Another gorgeous poinsettia. The gold stamen are a perfect touch to finish off these blossoms.
One final shot. Be sure to check out the tutorial to learn how to use a glimmer place to create beautiful and unique patterned paper to complement your projects in the Amazing Paper Grace - Creative Encouragement Community Facebook HERE.
