Tim Holtz STAMPtember Collaboration Christmas Shaker Card

This is the second Christmas card that was created with the exclusive STAMPtember collaboration stamp/stencil set with Tim Holtz from SimonSaysStamp. This is a fun image of Santa climbing up the chimney. I have also created an edge to edge shaker card to add a more whimsical feel. I'm excited to share some inspiration with you!

Ink smooshing on watercolor cardstock with a piece of plastic film and distress oxide speckled egg ink pad

Stamping over watercolor cardstock using Altenew Obsidian pigment ink

Coloring the image using Tim Holtz distress watercolor pencils

Creating a snowy sky using snowy stencil and Avery Elle white pigment ink pad

Stamping Believe in the Magic of Christmas sentiment onto a heat resistant dura-lar sheet using VersaMark watermark stamp pad

Then the sentiment was heat embossed with Hero Arts white embossing powder. After the sentiment cooled down, I then added strips of ultra sticky double sided tape on a four side of dura-lar sheet

I placed the dura-lar sheet and the adhesive on top of the card, then I tucked the extra dura-lar sheet flaps behind the card. I left the top side of the card open so I could add embellishments inside the card later on.

After the three sides of the shaker card were sealed, I added beads, sequins and mica flakes

The card is now completed with a plaid cardstock as the background
