 Hello Everyone! Welcome to the Spellbinder's Holiday Blog Hop! Today we are featuring some wonderful collections being released! My projects will feature the Zenspired Holidays Collection by Joanne Fink! I am such a doodler and I love the fact these cards look as if they were drawn by hand!  For my first card I just had to use the Dangling Ornaments along with my Distress Oxides. I started by creating a blended background cut down to 4 1/4 in x 5 1/2 in. I sprayed the background to give it some texture for an added touch. I stamped my images in white pigment ink and then heat set with white embossing powder! I wanted to make my ornaments stand out even more, to do that I used my oxides as watercolors and painted some of the focal areas. Once everything was dry I added some NuVo Drop Embellishments for some added dimension.  My second card is featuring the Christmas Candy Canes Stamp and Die Set! I think it is wonderful you get a die for each stamp in this set and their are two candy cane facing in opposite directions! No Mirror Stamping Here!  I stamped my images using an alcohol marker friendly ink and colored away! Cut my images using the coordinating dies once my coloring was finished. Adhered my candy canes using my liquid adhesive and double sided foam tape! Finally, what card is complete without some glitter!

Ever have one of those "duh!" moments? I did. Now why did I never consider using white pigment ink and white embossing powder together! Of course you will get a beautiful white impression! Thank you. One more thing to try as soon as I unpack my craft room!

When I see Joanne Fink's stamps/dies I always think elegant and fun and this Zenspired Holidays Collection is no exception. I love how your ornament card is elegant but still fun and the Candy Canes are so fun. Great job on both, thanks for the inspiration.

Wow! I love both cards, but I gotta tell ya....those colors on the ornament card rocked my world! Aged Mahogany is one of my favorites but I was always stuck on how to use it. You truly inspired me with that blend with Fired Brick, Worn Lipstick, and Ttyered Rose! TFS!
