Heidi was having fun creating her Christmas card for today using a bubbly stencil by Prima and some crackle texture paste. She used Tim Holtz Distress Inks (currently reduced!) and created a watercolor wash in a pretty blue, added her textured bubbles, glitzed them up with some sparkles. The heat embossed focal image sentiment is in white. A lot of fun things going on here, but still a card pretty flat for mailing for the holidays! Take a look:

Love this card design and I can see this for ANY occasion year round. Heidi used Extra Grand Holiday Sentiments, but using the companion set, Extra Grand Sentiments, allows you to use this same card design for occasions year round. LOVE that option!

You can find Heidi’s post here. (wonderful instruction included!)
