Good Morning Crafty Peeps, 

Are you decorating for Christmas yet? Well I have a treat for you today, another simple and quick project. I have a Christmas Home Decor using the cute Vintage Truck and the Chipboard Word "Believe".

Vintage Truck LG Chipboard Embellishment            Believe Chipboard Word Title

                                             

On the Chipboard word Believe place glue on top and then sprinkle red glitter on top. 

Set aside to let dry. 

Here is the finished Believe chipboard word. 

Next on the Vintage Truck I embossed the railings with gold embossing powder. 

Next I painted the Vintage Truck red. For the tired I punched out black circles, gold embossed some paper and punched out smaller circles and added brads in the middle. I adhered them down on each wheel. 

Here is a Christmas sign I got from Dollar Tree. I cut two flaps from a box. 

I took an Christmas sign I got from the dollar tree. I took a box and cut two flaps off and  adhered the two pieces of box flaps on the back

I placed double sided tape on the back of each side.

Next I took the truck turned it over and adhered a few pieces of the box flaps on the backside of the Vintage Truck. I added two layers of small pieces on the back of Vintage Truck. 

Next I added double back tape and glue to the box pieces and adhered the truck down. 

Next I added in my green foliage and adhered the Believe Chipboard Word in the middle. I am loving how this turned out for a nice Christmas Home Decor, so quick and easy. 

I  hope you enjoyed today's step by step tutorial and found some inspiration from today's project. I have the links to this Vintage Truck Lg Chipboard Embellishment and the Chipboard Word "Believe" throughout the step by step tutorial.

3D Nutcracker Busted Canvas for Tres Jolie

Hi Crafty Peeps, 

I am so excited to share with my first busted canvas project. For this project I used the November Scrapbook Kit from Tres Jolie. In this kit we used the 3 Quarter Designs Xmas Magic. I have a video tutorial and links down below, plus step by step tutorial. You can always watch the video for more details. 

November Scrapbook Kit

To get started you will need two 10 x 10 canvases. Measure the inside so you can adhere your pattern paper down to the inside. This measured 6 7/8 x 6 7/8 inches. Then place your glue to the inside of the canvas open area and adhere your paper down. 

You will do the same thing for the second canvas as well. With your canvases paint the inside of frame area of both of them, as shown below. 

Next pick one of the canvases for your top, and paint the top and sides. Set aside to dry. 

Once its dry, get your xacto knife and cut one line horizontal and one line vertical in the middle of the canvas. 

Then get you scissors and cut in the middle of each flap and you should 8 flaps, as shown below. 

For the next part I decided to used glue dots to hold down my flaps as the hot glue wouldn't hold and the flaps kept popping up. The glue dots worked really well. You want to roll the flaps over and place the glue dots (use two glue dots) at the tip of the flap.

Decorate the inside of your canvas. I fussy cut out the train and the solder and placed them inside. Next I did cut the edges off of the canvas you can see here I just away 1/4 inch from the wood and painted. I didn't want any of the white canvas edge showing. I also painted the edges.

Once I was done with decorating the inside I used double back tape 2 inch tape, and adhered it around the border of the canvas, as the hot glue was not working properly.  

Adhered on the busted canvas on top and then used a pretty gold ribbon from my stash that is adhered around the seams of the canvases. 

I placed a few of the ephemera pieces in the top corners and added in some of the pieces inside. The inside pieces are adhered down to wooden part of the canvas that is like a platform. 

I hope you found this Christmas 3D Nutcracker Busted Canvas tutorial inspirational and you get to create one as well. I really enjoyed creating this for Christmas. I will definitely be creating more of these. You can also give these as gifts.

Christmas Angel Curio Clock

 Hi Crafty Peeps, 

I hope you are doing well. I am so excited to share with you the November Scrapbook Kit. In this Scrapbook Kit we get a Curio Clock by Tim Holtz Idea-ology. I also used the beautiful chipboard angel and poinsettia flowers. So get out you things and let's craft together. As always I have a video tutorial for you here that shares more details and a step by step tutorial below. Links are shared throughout the post. I hope you get some inspiration from today's project. 

November Scrapbook Kit

To get started I used one of the chipboard angels outlining it with glue and then sprinkled white fine glitter on top. Set aside to dry. 

Next I took one of the white poinsettias from the kit and painted it with the Flat Magical Wild Rose Rouge that is from a past Mixed Media Kit. 

Next trace the back lid of the Curio Clock, cut out the circle and place inside the the lid. 

Next I used glue dots to adhere down the little metal ring that sets in the curio clock and to adhere down my twinkle lights. 

I added some poly-fil to bottom of the clock but I later cut a piece of chipboard 1 x 3 3/4 inches to place across inside the clock. This helps hold your items up better. 

I added some snow inside. 

I added 4 pieces of chipboard to the back of the Christmas Tree ephemera, so it would add a little dimension to the inside. 

Next I added in the angel and decorated the rest of the out side of the Curio Clock. 

Here are some close up photos for you down below. 

I hope you found this Christmas Angel tutorial inspirational and you get to create one as well. I really enjoyed creating this for Christmas. I thought these would make great Christmas gifts as well.

Shabby Christmas Stocking

 Merry Christmas everyone,

It's Deb here with another great project using the beautiful Wooden Christmas Stocking from the December Mixed Media Kit from Tres Jolie. If you haven't seen this kit you have to check it out. This is just so fun to create and definitely adds to Joy to the rest of your Christmas decor. You can add this to a wreath, use as a door hanging decor, have it stand alone on the mantel, so many ways to use this beautiful stocking. 

Are you ready to get started on this fun project. It's so super easy to create. Below are the supplies that come in the December Mixed Media Kit. I also used items from my stash. 

First I traced around the stocking on my pattern paper. 

I cut the paper stocking out and adhered down.

Next I turned over to cut off any excess paper.

To smooth out the edges I used a fingernail file around the paper.

Next I painted the stocking ends and the top of the stocking white.

I also painted above the papered portion of the stocking white.

Next add glue to the rounded leaves and get out the Lindysgang glitzy magical gleaming gold, its the gold powder from the December Mixed Media Kit.

After adding the glue scoop up the gold powder and sprinkle onto the glue.

Next spread out with the paint brush or your fingers. I did both. You will also do the same steps for the top rounded leaves.

Now we will be using the diamond shimmer dust that comes in the kit. Add glue to the pine branches.

Then sprinkle the Diamond Shimmer Dust on top. 

Here is what the top of the stocking should look like. Isn't it so pretty with the white and gold. 

For the word JOY I used the Lumiere Magenta drops and brushed it around the word. Then I added some pink paint. 

I also painted berries, candy cane and poinsettia pink. I them added some glue to top of each piece and sprinkled on the Diamond Shimmer Dust. This dries really fast. 

Next we are gonna add some white flock (from my stash) to the top of the stocking piece, just in the middle area, and add the flock to the stocking end pieces we painted white. 

I then adhered on the top piece and arranged other pieces on top of the stocking and adhered down. 

I also added gold stickels around the stocking ends and the top. 

I hope you enjoyed today's Christmas tutorial. I sure had fun creating this beautiful Shabby Christmas Stocking for you all. Here is the link to the December Mixed Media Kit.

I wish you all a Merry Christmas and I will see you again soon. Take Care.

Hugs & Happy Crafting
