Brand Ambassador Inspiration: Mixed Media Christmas Tree Trio

Hello everyone!

Happy Thursday!

 Recently I was going through my stash and rekindled my interest in Silver glitter paste. Because of the paste opacity, a thin layer makes it more opaque and visible the underneath color. Talk about the drama! 

So I thought it would be the perfect use for a new stencil release Christmas tree trio recently at Uniko.

It looked complicated but was easy to make. 

Here are step-by-step instructions with pics:

On a white panel, I placed my Christmas Tree trio stencil and drew the outlined trees one by one as shown in the above pic.

Once again, I put my stencil to ink my solid outlined tree using mowed lawn DI in between all these trees one by one.

It appeared like this as shown in the above pic.

I ink-blended the rest of the space using forest moss, crushed olive and mowed lawn DI. I outlined my trees using a green acrylic marker for more interest.

Now it's time to decorate my trees and the background. I added some confetti using DI.

I used my beloved Posca white pen for snowfall in the sky. Stamped the sentiment from the Pure Florals Poinsettia stamp set. To finish it off I wrapped a thread around the trees. 

Hope you all enjoyed this!

Happy crafting!

(IMP: I posted it today only and I can't able to revert the date, hope u all understand)

I  started with stamping the beautiful blooms and heat embossed in rich Gold pale EP. I colored them with my Chameleon Markers, fussy cut both.

Now created my own background panel to match the colors with my flowers using Gelli plate, brayer, DO and a scattered polka dot stencil.

Now die cuts some foliage, leaves and watercolored them too using my ZIG brushes. Die-cut a focal panel in white using some double stitched circles. I applied copper glitter paste using the same polka dot stencil which is peeking behind from the 3 circles. And arranged them all along with a copper thread underneath the flowers..

Stamped the sentiment on a black strip and heat embossed it in white. Added a tiny vellum butterfly. Embellished it with some sequins and added a strip of printed polka dot vellum sheet too.

I hope you have a wonderful day!

Happy crafting!
