Beary Merry Christmas!


Today I’m sharing another Christmas card using Hunkydory – For the love of Stamps – Polar Bear Pals .

To create the card, I began with the card base using Hammermill – Premium Colour 100 lb. folded to the size of 4.25″ x 5.5″. Stampendous! – Quick Card Backgrounds – Winter Splash was cut to the same size as the base and applied with double-sided tape.

With Memento – Tuxedo Black ink and my MISTI, I stamped the image onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card. I coloured in the image with Copic markers listed below and a Sakura Glaze – Black pen was used for the eyes, nose, buttons and mouth . The image was fussy cut, leaving a touch of white all around it and U-line Double-Sided Foam tape was applied.  The sentiment was stamped directly onto the background with Versa Fine – Onyx Black ink and Ranger – Clear Super Fine Detail embossing powder was applied over top of it. This was heat embossed using a Marvy Uchida – Embossing Heat Tool. The image was then popped up onto the card. Lastly, Nellie’s – Effect Snow and mixed glitter were applied to the tree branches for some added sparkle.

Have a Dairy Christmas!


Today I’m sharing another Christmas card using Art ImpressionsDairy Christmas Set (4789) that I made for some very nice people that I met on a cruise. We have kept in touch over the years and they own a dairy farm, so I thought this would be a very cute card to send to them.

To create the card, I began with the card base using Hammermill – Premium Colour 100 lb. folded to the size of 4.25″ x 5.5″. Stampendous! – Quick Card Backgrounds – Winter Splash was cut to the same size as the card base and applied with double-sided tape.

With Memento – Tuxedo Black ink and my MISTI, I stamped the image onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card. I coloured in the image with Copic markers listed below. The image was fussy cut, leaving a touch of white all around it and U-line Double-Sided Foam tape was applied.  The sentiment was stamped directly onto the background with Versa Fine – Onyx Black ink and Ranger – Clear Super Fine Detail embossing powder was applied over top of it. This was heat embossed using a Marvy Uchida – Embossing Heat Tool. The cow was then popped up onto the card. Lastly, Nellie’s Effect Snow and mixed Glitter was applied to the branches of the trees to give them some extra sparkle.
