Christmas Card for my Bestie!

Happy New Year! It's the first Tuesday of 2024 and my first blog post for the year. You've got Kathi here with a Christmas card that I created with Hobby Art Ltd.'s the Penguin Family and Besties Bundled Clear Stamp Sets. 


Use Tuxedo Black Memento Ink by Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko to stamp the penguins from the Penguin Besties Clear Stamp Set twice — once onto white cardstock and a second time onto removable sticker paper. 

Fussy-cut the label paper version and place it over its counterpart on the image panel.

Place Post-It Notes under the trees to protect the bottom portion of the image panel. Brush Della Blue Elements Ink, then grey ink over the top part of the penguins and trees to create a stormy winter sky. 

Splatter white paint over the masked images.

Remove the mask and Post-It Notes, then color the penguins, trees, and the snowy foreground with Copic markers. When done, use same white paint pen add more white paint dots to add more snow to the scene. Go over some of the snow dots with the Gelly Roll Bold Line Stardust Clear Glittering Ink pen to add some sparkle to the snow fall.

Use an A2 Polaroid die to cut a piece of blue/green plaid paper from the Gingham Christmas 8x8 Patterned Paper PadAdhere the die-cut over the penguin scene so that the window is framing the scene. Adhere the penguin scene polaroid combo a white A2 card.

Use Nocturne VersaFine Clair Ink by Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko to stamp the sentiment from the Penguin Besties Clear Stamp Set onto one of the a previously inked background, created by brushing excess ink onto white scraps of cardstock.

Die-cut the sentiment with a fancy labels die, then adhere to the bottom of the polaroid die-cut. Add gemstones to the diecut to finish the card.
