Fun Techniques to Level Up Your Christmas Cards

Handmade Cards Showing Fun Mixed Media Techniques to Level Up Your Christmas Cards created by Sarah Phelan from Sarah's Stampin' Retreat

Hello Crafters! How are you? Today I’m sharing some Fun Techniques to Level Up Your Christmas Cards. They’re mixed media techniques, but I find that a lot of people find the idea of mixed media a bit scary, so I like to think of them as “playing with your stash”. I’m not sharing anything that’s difficult to achieve, but there are some super fun techniques in there, so I’d encourage you to see if there’s one you’ve never tried before and try that!

I created these cards for Creative Stamping magazine number 140 using the stamps and stencil that come with the magazine. I don’t usually do a lot of mixed media, but this definitely made me want to do more. I love how they turned out! Which is your favourite? Let me know in the comments!
