Merry Christmouse!

Jan23

Today I’m sharing a Christmas card that I made using DisDigiStamps – Twas the Night Before Christmas for the main image and sentiment from Jaded Blossom – Mouse Bites!

The image was printed out with my HP Printer onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card using High Quality Grayscale and then die cut using a Cuttlebug and My Creative Time – Rectangle Frame Layers. The image was coloured in with Copic markers and then a White Gelly Roll Sakura #10 Pen was applied to create the snow falling from the sky and snow drifts in the snow. Uni Posca Pens – Yellow, Light Blue and Red were applied to the bobbles in the tree and Uni Posca Pen – Gold was applied to blue present.

The base card was created to the size of 4.25″ x 5.5″ out of Hammermill – Premium 110 lb. cardstock. The base pattern was cut to the same size using paper from Crafts Christmas and applied directly to base with double-sided tape. The gold frame for the image was die cut using a Cuttlebug, Chloe’s Crafts paper and My Creative Time – Rectangle Frame Dies and the frame for the sentiment was die cut from Frosty Frame Festive Collection Die Sue Wilson Creative Expressions.

Then using a MISTI, navy blue paper from my stash and VersaMark ink, I used Jaded Blossom – Mouse Bites to stamp the sentiment. Ranger Embossing Powder White – Extra Fine Detail was applied on top of the ink. The embossing powder was heated with a Marvy Uchida – Embossing Heat Tool and then die cut using Waffle Flower – Additional Oval dies.

The card was now ready to assemble. Double-sided tape was applied to the back of the image and sentiment and they were applied directly on the gold cuts. U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape was applied to the backs of the gold die cuts and then both were popped up and layered onto the card. Lastly, liquid glue was applied to the gold stars left over from the die cut and they were placed around the sentiment.

Owl Carol

Dec3

Today, I’m sharing a Christmas card that I made using a retired image from Di’s Digistamps called Owl Carol.

For the base card, I used Hammermill – Premium Cardstock 110 lb. and cut it and scored it to be 5.5″ x 5.5″. For the background, I cut Hunkydory Adorable Scorable Pattern Packs – Let It Snow paper to the same size as the base card and inked around the edges and along the bottom with Tim Holtz Distress Ink – Prize Ribbon. I adhered this to the base card with double-sided tape. Washi Tape was then applied directly to the left side of the card base. Waffle Flower – Nesting Square dies and Cuttlebug were used to die cut a 4.25″ x 4.25″ piece of dark blue cardstock.  Precision Cutting Dies by Frantic Stamper Inc. “Falalalala” was used to die cut the sentiment 4 times. 3 times with the dark blue cardstock and 1 time using Recollections – Matte Gold Foil cardstock.

The image using HP High Quality Grayscale was printed onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card and die cut using Cuttlebug and My Creative Time -Stitched Squares Inside and Out. The image was coloured in with Copic markers and Cosmic Shimmer Fluffy Stuff was added to the bottom of the image for the snow. Marvy Uchida – Embossing Heat Tool was applied to the snow to puff it up. Stickles – Diamond was applied to the puffy snow to add a little more sparkle and also to the top of the lantern and tree branch. Gelly Roll Sakura #10 Pen was applied in the sky to create a snowy background. Sakura Glaze – Black and Gelly Roll Sakura #5 Pen were added to the noses on the mouse and rabbit. The finished image was popped up onto the blue square cardstock using 3M – double-sided foam tape and then this was attached to the base card using U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape. The “Falalalala” sentiments were attached together to give the illusion of being 3-D and applied to the card using liquid glue to finish it off.
