Slim Woodland with Amy

 Hi! Amy here sharing a fun shaker card for my September Designer Series project, featuring the Slim Woodland CC and Big Oh So Jolly CC.

To begin, I Copic colored the stamped images from the Snow Friends stamp set and die-cut them with the coordinating Snow Friends CC.

The background was trimmed and ink blended with Distress Oxides.

The front panel was die cut with the Slim Woodland CC. I glued on diamond dust around the snowdrifts and around the tops of the trees.

The sentiment was die-cut using the Big Oh So Jolly CC.

To assemble the shaker card, I adhered trimmed acetate behind the front panel and two layers of foam tape around the edges and the top snowdrift. Then, I added the diamond dust as the shaker element and adhered the background panel on top.

To finish, I adhered and foam mounted the colored images and the sentiment and added splatters of white ink to create snow.

Toasty Friends with Thi

Hi! Thi here, and today I am sharing a card I made using Toasty Friends stamp set and Big Merry and Bright - Creative Cuts from the September 2020 release. I love these large sentiment dies from Mama Elephant whenever I want to make a quick yet impactful card. The images from Toasty Friends brought the exact amount of cute factor I need for an adorable holiday card!

So, let's begin! First, I stamped and colored all my images with watercolor markers. I then let it dry before die cutting with the coordinating dies.

For the background, I ink blended a piece of Bristol smooth card stock with Distress Oxide in Shabby Shutters and Abandon Coral. I wanted the card to have the traditional red and green of Christmas but by choosing more muted tones, you get an almost non-traditional look - which I love.

Once the ink blended piece was a little dry, I die cut the entire thing with DE - Confetti Cover - CC for an interesting and fun background. I adhered this piece onto a top-folding A2 card base with tape runner.

Next, for my sentiment, I die cut the Big Merry and Bright - Creative Cuts three times - two times on regular card stock and one time in gold glitter card stock. I stacked them and glued them together for dimension. Then, I glued this onto my card and put a book on top to keep it down and flat while the glue dries.

While my sentiment was being weighed down and the glue was drying, I added foam tape to all my colored images. Next, I arranged them onto my card and adhered them and my card is finished!

I hope you enjoyed reading about my project today and thank you so much for reading! Have an amazing day!

Slim Woodland with Nichol

Hello friends! Nichol here today with a Slim Woodland card that I turned into a fall scene rather than a winter or Christmas scene! I love that the landscape can be turned into "grass" rather than "snow" and how the leaves from the Tree Branches Cover Creative Cuts Die are the perfect way to add falling leaves to the design!

Images from the Sincerely Yours Stamp Set and Toasty Friends Stamp Set were stamped on Bristol Smooth Cardstock with a no line coloring ink and colored with the following Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers:

• Bunnies: Mid Brown, Beige, Light Beige, Pale Pink
• Mouse: Dark Gray, Light Gray, Pale Pink
• Bunny in Blue Jammies: Deep Blue, Blue Gray, Purple, Blender, Mustard, Mid Brown
• Mama Bunny's Chair & Card: Peacock Blue, Persian Green, Blender, Deep Red, Pale Rose, Mustard, Mid Brown
• Bunny in Striped Jammies: Deep Red, Pale Rose, Blender, Blue Gray, Mustard, Mid Brown
• Bunny in Green Jammies: Mid Green, Olive Green, Dark Gray, Light Gray, Blue Gray, Mid Brown, Beige
• Bunny with Mug: Peacock Blue, Persian Green, Deep Blue, Blue Gray, Deep Red, Pale Rose
• Thought Bubble: Blue Gray, Blender

The images were die cut with the coordinating dies.

The Slim Woodland was die cut from smooth white cardstock. The edges of the panel were masked off with post it tape and the landscape was inked with Crushed Olive and Forest Moss Distress Ink. The trees were inked with Gathered Twigs and Ground Espresso Distress Ink.

A 3 1/4" x 8 1/4" panel was inked with Peacock Feathers and Chipped Sapphire Distress Inks and splattered with Liquid Stardust for a "starry sky". The Slim Woodland was adhered over the sky.

Scraps of smooth white cardstock were inked with Mustard Seed, Rusty Hinge, Crushed Olive, and Aged Mahogany Distress Inks and then die cut with leaves dies from the Tree Branches Cover Creative Cuts Die. The leaves were glued to the trees and scattered along the landscape to create the fall scene.

The Sincerely Yours Stamp Set and Toasty Friends Stamp Set images were adhered to the scene as shown. The thought bubble was adhered with foam adhesive.
