Merry Christmas Reindeer

Merry Christmas Reindeer

I am still working on getting Christmas cards made. . . . 

I started with cutting all my panels out for the cards. I used the stitched rectangle dies from 

Lawn Fawn.

For my base I used a glitter plaid and my next panel is a tone on tone green that 

matches the green in the plaid.

My top panel is watercolor paper.

I used my mini Misti stamping tool to stamp my image on my watercolor panel. I used Versafine for the reindeer head and wanted to stamp my sentiment in color so I chose Distress Ink Peeled Paint to go with the green in my background. 

I used Strawberry Jude Stamps Letter to Santa and Tag It: Christmas

I colored the reindeer head using two shades of brown Clean Color Zig Markers, I used a third lighter brown to blend it all together. I was going to use my water brush but this light brown did a great job. I use a glaze pen on the nose. . . I made 4 of these cards and after doing three of them with black noses I realized they should be Rudolf! I gave my last one a red nose. . . . 

Time to assemble!

I put my layers together and adhered them to my card base.

Since the back ground has glitter on it

I decided to use some wood veneer stars and some red sequins.

These cards turned out perfectly, and I am glad I finally got to use these stars!

I am entering these cards it the following challenges:

I'm All Ears

I'm all Ears

So I decided to try out the Corn Cob Layers set from Strawberry Jude Stamps.

I used yellow inks from Lawn Fawn and distress inks.

I cut out the corn cobs to put them on a card front.

I die cut my base panels, one from a argyle pattern paper and my next panel is yellow that has a word grain embossed into it.

I cut a banner and white heat embossed the sentiment "I'm All Ears" from the Corn Cob layers set.

I outlined the corn cobs with some gathered twigs distress inks so that they don't get lost on the yellow back ground and added some brown glitter enamel dots.

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving

I really liked how this card turned out!

I die cut my base panel with a stitched rectangle die and then used this die that has three stitched squares to make little windows.

I stamped my sentiment and three little thanksgiving icons on my window cut outs and card front..

I decided that I wanted my little square cutouts to be recessed on the card front so I used some foam tape to pop up the main part of the panel.

I cut my panel from watercolor paper so I colored my little icons with some Zig clean color markers and a water brush.

I also decided that I wanted a color wash on the front of my panel to help the recessed squares stand out a little bit more. I used Mission Gold watercolors to add an orange and yellow wash to the top portion of my card.

I attached the panel to my card base and added the decorated squares.

I finished off the card with some orange sequins and also traced the stitching with a white pen to make it stand out a little better. 

I like how festive this card looks!

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas!

Hello!

Christmas is really just around the corner, 

are your Christmas cards ready to send out?

I am going to show you how I made these Christmas cards

I used two stamp set from Strawberry Jude Stamps, 

Tag it: Christmas and Falling with Fox and Raccoon

I used stitched rectangle die to cut my panels. . . 

I cut an extra top panel in white so that when I layer them up they are the same size and still have the stitching. I used my mini Misti to stamp my holiday greeting onto my white paper and then die cut it to look like a snow bank.

I used watercolors to make a color wash for my background.

I used Copic markers to color in my cute critters. . . 

Since these critters have no bottom I extended the bottom and closed the image up using a black fine tip pen. This way my Scan n Cut was able to cut the whole image out.

Now it is time to assemble my cards!

I use my Silhouette to cut some santa hats. I used a snow pen to put some fluff on the hat. A snow pen has a liquid that reacts to heat. You apply with the pen and use a heat gun and the liquid bubbles up and looks like snow!

I added the hats and a few glitter enamel dots, card complete!

I like how these cards turned out!

These little critters are so cute and they are even cuter with these little Santa hats!

Thank you so much for stopping by!
