Hi crafty friends! Beata June here, and I'm excited to share this new project with you today on the blog.
I bought lots of Christmas/holiday stamps to make Thanksgiving and Christmas cards, but I didn't send any holiday cards out! (oops!) 😆 So I decided to use my Paperie Ink holiday stamps to make this non-holiday slimline card.
First, I stamped out my images using my mini misti stamping tool:
- fox, raccoon, and birds from the Like Christmas stamp set
- another raccoon from the Autumn Fun stamp set
- foxes, wagon, piles of presents/mail from the Many Thanks stamp set
- mice and presents from the Santa Baby stamp set
I colored my images with copic markers, cut them out, and added white highlights to them with a jelly roll pen.
For my background, I blended Barn Door Distress Oxide Ink, Fired Brick Distress Oxide Ink, Wild Honey Distress Oxide Ink, Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide Ink and some other distress oxides using my Picket Fence Life Changing Blender Brushes. I used the Lawn Fawn Simple Stitched Hillside Borders die to make my grassy panel from some light green card stock, and blended Rustic Wilderness Distress Oxide Ink and some other green distress oxides onto my grassy panel.
Next, I adhered the grassy panel onto my blended background and splattered them with paint. Then, I glued on my colored images and finished my card by stamping on the "from all of us" sentiment from the Paperie Ink Build a X-mas Tree stamp set.
Here's another look at my finished card:
I hope you like this card. I love stretching my stamps, so this was a fun project to create. And best thing is I'll be able to go back to re-use these stamps again next Thanksgiving and Christmas!
Thanks for reading along!
Crafty hugs,
Beata June 💚
