Process Steps
Take a piece of vellum, stamp the holly using Versamark and sprinkle the embossing powder over and heat.
Take a small paper mache panel give it a light coat of gesso and dry.
Take blue, yellow and white paints, on a palette mix your main colour leaving some of the paints to use to blend with. Using a small sponge dab and blend the colours over the surface and around the sides, dry.
Give the panel a coat of collage medium and lay the vellum over and gently press and rub so that it adheres This rippled more than I thought it wood but embrace the imperfections as Tim says and actually I quite like the distressed look.
Take the Christmas ephemera piece, blend the edges with brown distress ink and then secure to the panel using foam pads.
Cut the frame, ink the edges and stack the layers over the wallpaper background inside the the frame.
Add the quote chip and some 49 & Market rubon transfers.
Gather some berries together, bind the middle with ribbon and tie it around the frame. Adhere the middle of the bunch of berries with hot glue.
