Christmas Keepsake with Karen Jiles


Hi there, 

It’s Karen sharing a Christmas Keepsake that I created with the Skeleton Poinsettia and Words of Christmas Chipboard sets.  The chipboard sets were absolutely perfect for this Keepsake. I coupled them with some embellishment mousse and Christmas themed patterned papers. I loved the end result. Take a peek at my tutorial below.




Step 1: Adhere coordinating layers of patterned paper together using adhesive. 


Step 2: Add additional patterned paper layers and adhere to wooden frame using E6000. Set aside.




Step 3: Apply Cosmic Brown Embellishment Mousse to the Skeleton Poinsettia and 
Words of Christmas chipboard using a foam tool. Heat set the chipboard to dry. Note: To give the poinsettia some dimension, I reformed the chipboard with my finger.


Step 4: Adhere the mousse covered chipboard to the layered papers using E6000. Add a clear pebble, flowers and velvet ribbon.


Step 5: Add beaded pins and tap on gesso using a paintbrush.


Step 6: Continue embellishing as desired.
