Happy Pawlidays!

Nov25

Today I’m sharing another Christmas card that I made using KLM Digital Designs – Kitty – Santa Hat from the new November 2024 Release. This image also comes with the 2 other sentiments, “Merry Christmas” and “Santa Paws is Comin’ to town”. Purrrfect for all of the cat lovers out there or for your own little kitty cat! LOL!

The image and sentiment were printed out with my HP Printer onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card using High Quality Grayscale. The image was coloured in with Copic markers and a Prismacolor Premier black pencil was used to colour in the eyes and the whiskers.  Sakura Glaze – Black Pen was used to colour in the nose and a White Gelly Roll Sakura #10 Pen was used to create the highlight. The White Gelly Roll Sakura #10 Pen was also applied to the sky and highlights on the snow drifts. Stickles – Diamond was applied to the top of the snow and on the white parts of the hat.

The base card was created to the size of 4.25″ x 5.5″ out of Hammermill – Premium 110 lb. cardstock. Recollections – Navy Cardstock was cut to the same size as the base card and it was adhered to it with liquid glue. U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape was applied to the completed image and it was popped up onto the  centre of the card.

Christmas Tree Gnome!

Nov22

Today I’m sharing a Christmas card that I made using KLM Digital Designs – Christmas Tree Gnome II from the new November 2024 Release.

The base card was created to the size of 4.25″ x 5.5″ out of Hammermill – Premium 110 lb. cardstock.  The image was printed out onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card using High Quality Grayscale and then it was die cut using a Cuttlebug and My Creative Time – Rectangle Frame Die Layers (3.5″ x 4.75″). The image was then coloured in with Copic markers listed below.  A white Gelly Roll Sakura #10 Pen was used to create the white snow in the sky and also the sparkles on the snow drifts on the ground. Recollections – Red cardstock was cut to the size of approximately x 3.75″ x 5″ and the finished image was directly applied to this using liquid glue. Once again, liquid glue was applied to the red rectangle and it was adhered directly to the base card. Finally to finish it off, I popped up a sentiment from Creative Expressions – Wordies Sentiment Sheets – Christmas Script (CEW022) using U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape.

Christmas Wagon Kitty!

Today I’m sharing a Christmas card that I made using Dis Digi Stamps – Christmas Wagon Kitty (Retired).

The base card was created to the size of 4.25″ x 5.5″ out of Hammermill – Premium 110 lb. cardstock. Craft Smart – Hot Buy – Happy Pawlidays paper was cut to the same size and adhered to the base using double-sided tape. Tim Holtz Distress Ink – Rustic Wilderness was inked around all of the edges of the card using a finger dauber. I chose a sentiment from Photo-Play Santa Paws Cats – Stickers and applied it to some red cardstock from my stash and then fussy cut around it and set it aside. With my Cuttlebug, I die cut Crafter’s Companion Luxury Cardstock – Red matte finish with PinkFresh Studio – Essentials: Folk Edge Squares.

The image was printed out with my HP Printer onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card using High Quality Grayscale. The image was coloured in with Copic markers. Sakura Glaze – Black Pen was used to colour in the eyes and nose. The eyebrows, mouth, tail and finer details on mouse were enhanced using a PrismaColor Black pencil. The whiskers were also added using the black pencil. Gelly Roll Sakura #5 Pen was applied to create the dots in the eyes and on the nose. To create the snow in the sky, Gelly Roll Sakura #10 Pen was applied to make some snowflakes larger and smaller than others. On the presents, a UNI Posca Pen – Gold was used on the ribbon and dots on the presents. Lastly, Stickles – Diamond was applied to the cuff of the hats, pompoms and snow on the ground.

The card was now ready to assemble. U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape was applied to the image and it was popped up onto the red square die cut. Once again, it was applied to the die cut and the sentiment. Both items were then popped up onto the card to complete it.

Today I’m sharing a simple Thanksgiving card that I made using KLM Digital Designs – Pre-Colored Dinosaur Pumpkin from the new November 2024 Release. Our Canadian Thanksgiving has past, but the American Thanksgiving is happening soon!

The base card was created to the size of 4.25″ x 5.5″ out of Hammermill – Premium 110 lb. cardstock.  Chocolate brown paper from the Creative Memories – Croptoberfest 2021 Sampler Pack , was cut to the same size as the base and adhered to the card. Next, I cut 2 strips from PhotoPlay – Gnome for the Holidays Thanksgiving paper to the size of 4-1/8″ x 1″ and some Thanksgiving paper 4-1/8″ x 3-3/8″ from my scrap stash paper. The followings inks were used to apply ink around the edges of the papers: Tim Holtz Distress Ink – Carved Pumpkin, Tim Holtz Distress Ink – Aged Mahogony and Tim Holtz Distress Inks – Peeled Paint. All of the pieces were adhered to the base with liquid glue.

I chose a sentiment from PhotoPlay – Autumn Greetings by Becky Moore – Element Stickers and applied it to some regular cardstock and then fussy cut around it. U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape was applied to the image and sentiment and both items were popped up onto the card. Kraftin’ Kimmie  Dots were added to the bottom to complete the card.
