Hey everybody! It’s the 25th, so you know what that means, it’s the Crafty Festival Christmas Club blog hop! Each month we share a little bit of holiday inspiration with this hop. Instead of forcing yourself to make a bunch of holiday cards at the last minute, it spaces the work throughout the year. Check out the Crafty Festival Facebook page for more information on the Christmas Club blog hop and their other blog hops here.
I can’t believe it’s only two months until Christmas! Today I am sharing a card that is more of a winter-themed card than a Christmas card featuring the Victoria – Wanna Build a Snowman stamp set from Stamp Anniething. It gives me chills over how adorable this stamp set looks! I used Copic markers to color the girl and snowman images. I have listed the markers I used in a coloring guide at the bottom of this post.
To create the falling snow background I first ink blended a solid background with Shaded Lilac Distress Oxide ink, then I used white pigment ink with the
Snowfall Stencil from
Kindred Stamps. I created the snowy bank with a
Stitched Hillside Border die from
Lawn Fawn and distressed the top edge with the Shaded Lilac Oxide ink. I used my Copics to create a shaded area on the snowy hillside where the girl and snowman are standing. I used foam tape to attach the girl and snowman image to the background.
I used white embossing powder to heat emboss the sentiment “wanna build a snowman?” onto the gray sentiment strip. To finish off the card I matted the background onto gray cardstock and then added the pieces to the card base. I added white and clear sequins for embellishment.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. Make sure to check back next month for more holiday inspiration. Be sure to hop along with us today for even more festive creations!
