Gotta have a little Christmas in July…

Here’s a card I made for Stamper’s Anonymous featuring some new Tim Holtz Blueprint stamps.

I wanted to ‘ruin’ the gingerbread man. First I colored him all nice, then I crackled him, then I painted over that with matte finish adhesive so it wasn’t so shiny. I totally love the effect.

And a big thanks to Tim Holtz for letting me have some Christmas creative time in July with his newest stamps! I do love my Christmas crafting – even when it’s 105 outside.

  1. Look the gingerbread man. Lovely colors. Love the kraft color and your treatment of the paper with different elements especially the crackle. Thank you for sharing.

  2. That gingerbread man looks fabulous May, ruined to perfection with that crackle! Love the way you have coloured the charm too.
